It has been announced that the World DX Club (WDXC) is to close, a
final issue of Contact magazine is to be published in December.For 44
years the club have published their newsletter Contact magazine every
month, containing station logs, news, information and comment about
radio and radio broadcasts, both current and historical, primarily,
but not exclusively, international shortwave radio.Regretfully due to
health reasons Arthur and Olive Ward have had to step down from their
club duties in charge of membership subscriptions, dispatch of
bulletins as well as many contributions to the content of Contact over
the years. Arthur became club printer in July 1974 and added his
secretarial role in December 1979.This leaves the club with too few
voluntary staff for the work involved and it has been decided to cease
publication of Contact. It is understood that outstanding
subscriptions are to be transferred to the British DX Club for UK and
overseas members outside of North America and to the North American
Shortwave Association for North American members.
