DX, one aspect of the hobby of amateur ("Ham") radio, is an abbreviation for "distance" and is used as a noun (DX = distant station; DXer = one who pursues DX) and a verb (DXing = the pursuit of DX radio contacts). The enthusiasm of DXers is exemplified by the frequent DXpeditions by Hams, in which operators venture forth to some corner of the globe that may be uninhabited, lacking Ham radio activity, or just an interesting place to go, for the primary purpose of providing the rest of us with radio contacts! Some are true expeditions in the classical sense, in which equipment, shelters, generators, and supplies must be carried in at great personal cost and risk.
