DX Century Club
What began in 1935 with Clinton B. DeSoto's article about DX scoring is now Amateur Radio's premier award. The modern DXCC program has been around since 1945 when hams were back on the air after years of radio silence during World War II. Since then Radio Amateurs world wide have been comparing country counts and boasting about working the "rare ones."
If you are a new ham or an old timer, working toward your first 100 countries or on the Honor Roll the ARRL DXCC program has something for you.
