I would not say that. Interest in DX reports waned as the importance
of
non-local coverage waned, while at the same time most non-Metro
stations
used outside contract engineers who were not paid to answer reception
reports. Today, nearly nobody at a station will know what DX even is.


Hell, even you don't know what DX is. Never did, never will. 'Eduardo',
you
couldn't DX your way out of a wet paper sack!


Of course, that has no truth to it al all. I was a good enough DXer to be
one of the founding members of the IRCA and a member of it's board in its
first year, as well as a member of the NRC from about 1958 to just a
couple
of years ago.


They kick your faux ass out?


No, I did not renew... a few ornery DXers who are against radio as a
business made it annoying, particularly when one has to pay to be a member.


You don't mean radio as a business. You mean radio as a scam.
