NEWS : IR-DX History (our archive site)
Thanks to Jan 153IR101's work, we are proud to introduce our History Website aka the IR-DX archive, were you will find most QSL and most pictures and activation reports from the early days until 2004. We now need to upload material from 2004 to 2014, so it's a "work in progress", but we are sure it will bring back good memories !

Click on DX Info on the left menu to access past activations reports, or visit the QSL gallery … You can even click "Join IR-DX Group" if you dare … but that's not for the faint-hearted
We are proud of our history, our achievements and our members !
IR-DX GO GO GO !
HB20
Created in 1994, the International Radio DX Group (IR-DX) is celebrating this year his 20th anniversary.
For that special occasion, ALL IR-DX members will be allowed to use /HB20 suffix after their callsign (ex 13IR999/HB20,15/13IR999/HB20,13IR/EU129/HB20 or 13IR/O-013/HB20,15IR000/HB20).
Multi operators will be accepted too (ex 14IR001/MULTI/HB20).
The event will take place from March 13th 0:00UTC, to December 31st 24:00UTC.
We will print a special QSL for the event (sent by manager 14IR017) and, also, the most successful /HB20 Activators and /HB20 Hunters will get an Award (HQ will offer an Award for the 5 first HB20 Activators who will make the maximum of QSO and 5 first Hunters of HB20 Stations)
Two options to get the QSL :
– send log by email (14ir017@irdx.org) and contribution by Paypal (regis.bordet@wanadoo.fr)
by email : prefered log format : EXCEL with data form like this please :
UR Callsign (no spaces : 999XX999), time(hh:hh) , report(x/y), date(xx/yy/2014) , station WKD (xxIRyyy/HB20)
or
– send written or printed log and standard contribution by snail mail (post) to 14IR017
ACTIVATORS : it is compulsory to contact 14IR017 Reg (14ir017@irdx.org ) BEFORE you start activation, so that your station will be officially listed and announced on irdx.org .
Please register for the event as soon as possible. You can register anytime, even if the HB20 has already started.
ALL : You need to send a LOG of your /HB20 contacts to Reg by email or snail mail no later than Jan. 31st 2015.

Message from irhqcouncil
Dear members,
We want first to thank you for your support during the changes that happened in the group.
We are happy to state that the IR-DX has been improving fast during the last couple of months.
New members and returning members, lots of activities, cluster.dk invasions … This is very positive !
Outstanding / late QSL problem seems to be solved and requests are taken care of quickly.
The Council is using email, whatsapp and phone to take decisions as fast as possible and, for example, activations authorisations can be given usually in 24 hours.
We wanted to thank everyone who is taking part to the HB20 event (chasers & activators).
There has been a few good ones on the air and more are coming.
It is still possible to join the event at anytime, you just need to contact 14IR017 Regis (14ir017@irdx.org). It’s never too late, because HB20 is until 31/12/2014.
The list of HB20 is already impressive :
You can take advantage of the coming “short skip” conditions to have fun with your
/HB20 suffix !
The Council will keep on working hard to meet our goals and satisfy all the members.
Do no hesitate to contact us if you have any ideas, requests, questions etc to this email address only : irhqcouncil@irdx.org
Best regards.
the VP council.
14IR001 Didier – 14IR184 Diégo – 15IR076 Chris – 15IR106 Adrian – 19IR004 Rob.
