Current DXCC Country and Prefix lists
& 10 Band Checklists in various Formats

Feel free to use and distribute these lists
These Lists are for FREE Distribution

I started putting DX news bulletins onto the "Net" in
in November 1998. It soon became apparent, that non
ISWL members also wanted my DX Prefix and Country
lists and current DX news etc.

So the newsdesk was launched as a platform to
access these lists and to display current DX News etc.
There is also links to other DX outlets and radio organisations.
