DXing from Minnesota . . . Land of 10,000 Lakes
Welcome to Minnesota, the Land of 10,000 Lakes and the home of the theTwin City DX Association (TCDXA). You are visiting an amateur radio (ham radio) club website devoted to its members and their interest in long distance radio communications (DX).
TheTCDXA is a non-profit organization as described in Section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code. All contributions from U.S. residents are tax-deducutible to the extent permitted by law.
Our mission is to raise Dollars for DX used to help fund qualified DXpeditions. Annual member dues and other contributions are the main source for these dollars. The cards on the scrolling QSL banner represent DXpeditions we've sponsored over the years dating back to VKØIR in 1997. Click here for a complete list of Sponsored DXpeditions.
TheTCDXA was founded in 1970, and is an ARRL affiliated club, whose members enjoy DXing and DX contesting. They range in age and expertise from hams just getting started in the hobby to old timers. Many of our members are contesters, and also belong to the Minnesota Wireless Association (MWA)
