DX Ladder

Welcome to the Dominion DX Group DX Ladder Competition. This a friendly competition among club members to see who works the most new band countries per year. And beginning in April 2023 we have added a second, Super Ladder. The Super Ladder will reset each calendar year so that all club members may participate even if they have years of operation (and band-countries) under their belts. Results for both ladder competitions are presented during our club meetings and will be uploaded below. DDXG President Tom Mundy, N3GTG, is also our ladder chair. **NOTE – The Ladder competitions have been updated for 2025. Below you will find the latest results for the Original Ladder competition, which continues into 2025; and the new DX Challenge competition, which replaced the Super Ladder.
