Special Montana DX Test Announcement



The state of Montana is one of the rarest of all for DX'ers, especially 
those east of the Mississippi River. Through the joint efforts of a lot of 
dedicated folks, we are now proud to announce a special multi-station DX 
test from Montana offering listeners a rare opportunity to log this state.



Special thanks go out to the ABDX E-Mail List, Engineer Ron Huckeby, Michael 
Richard of KEVA, and the staff of these stations for putting this test 
together. DX'ers everywhere owe them all a debt of gratitude.
