The Program includes five excellent presentations:

It features Jose Campione, VA3PCJ, a noted Ontario yachtsman and ham.

3) Scott Wood, VE1QD, will take you on a trip to the British Antarctic Territories, some of the rarest DX real estate on the planet.

4) Fred and Helen Archibald, VE1FA and VA1YL, will show you how to mount a real DXpedition in your own region at a moderate cost.

5) The DX Forum Dinner will feature a reception at 5:00 pm followed by dinner at 6:00 pm. In the day’s final event, Don Trotter, VE1DTR, and his musical group Sunrise will entertain after dinner with a Bluegrass Concert: DX Breakdown.
