By Enrico Stumpf-Siering, DL2VFR.
Originally published in German, the Shortwave DX Handbook is a bestseller that has been expertly translated into English by Martyn Phillips, G3RFX. Often called the DX Bible for HF amateur radio operators, this book is the modern reference work for beginners or old hands who chase DX on the HF bands. It is a goldmine for anyone interested in DXing or operating on the HF Bands. Starting from the question "So you want to be a DXer?" and tackling subjects such as how to really listen, pile-up techniques (both for CW and SSB), DX information (Clusters, bulletins, websites, news broadcasts), propagation etc, the Shortwave DX Handbook is full of useful information and techniques for both the newcomer and the experienced DXer. Virtually every conceivable piece of information the HF operator or DXer is ever likely to require is here from "DX etiquette" to "how to". This book also contains extensive appendices covering subjects such as Morse code; English, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Russian phonetic alphabets and numbers; NCDXF beacons; IARU Region 1, 2 and 3 band plans; CEPT licensing information; ITU country prefixes; DXCC entities; Russian prefixes and districts; IARU member societies' names, addresses and websites; overseas QSL bureaus and very much more. 419 pages. ©2005.
