	Welcome to the Northern Illinois DX Association Web Site. Feel free to look around to see what we are up to. The NIDXA is an active DX club affiliated with the ARRL. NIDXA runs the Ninth District Incoming QSL Bureau, and the world famous W9DXCC Convention. NIDXA-Sponsored 2018 CQ DX Marathon Plaque Winner K2JL Hello DX Friends! I just wanted to thank you for sponsoring the 2018 CQ DX Marathon Formula Class plaque! With my simple setup of 100w and a few wire antennas (1 Carolina Windom and 3 EDZ antennas plus a DXE 43’ vertical), I was able to take home first place in 2018. Thank you for the plaque! I’m in the running again this year hopefully! Tough condx for 100w and wires this year but I’m forging ahead! 73, Jim K2JL
