DX MARATHON — IT’S NOT TOO LATE TO ENTER FOR 2025!
DXers, the annual DX Marathon is coming to a close, but there’s still time to participate. Log submissions will be accepted through January 5, 2026. If you’ve been curious about the DX Marathon and want to give it a try, you can enter quickly and easily—often in as little as 10 minutes.
There is no cost to enter. All you need is a computer and a logging program capable of generating an ADIF file. There’s no need to filter your log—we take care of that for you.
Why participate?
Whether you’re a serious competitor or simply want a meaningful metric to compare your DX performance year-over-year against peers with similar operating conditions, the DX Marathon is for you.
And here’s the big news: for the first time ever, every participant will receive a beautiful certificate. Your certificate will include your final score and highlight your most significant achievements. Many participants are pleasantly surprised by how well they do—so jump in and see for yourself.
Submission is easy — just follow these steps:
1. Generate an ADIF file from your logging program (no filtering required).
2. Go to entry.dxmarathon.com and click “Upload ADIF.”
3. Answer a few short questions to place you in the correct class (power output, antenna configuration, etc.).
4. If you belong to a club, select it from the drop-down menu to apply your score.
5. If you wish to submit a single-mode entry (CW, Digital, or SSB), check the appropriate box.
6. If you wish to submit a single-band entry, check that box as well.
That’s it—simple and straightforward.
If you have any questions about the submission process, feel free to contact me directly at wc3w@dxmarathon.com.
All submissions must be completed by January 5, 2026. Late entries cannot be processed. The clock for the 2026 DX Marathon will begin on January 1, 2026.
Good luck, and happy holidays!
