If you are is really interested in shortwave listening, joining a DX club is a
excellent idea. Several of these clubs have a bulletin (typically monthly),
that constitutes an important source of listening tips and equipment news.
Through these DX clubs, shortwave listeners can also divulge their own
experiences in the hobby (listenings, received QSL's, hints, etc)
as a way of exchanging information with other SWLers.
There are hundreds of DX clubs around the world,
most in North America and Europa.
