SMS Alerts Boost 'Ham' Radio Contacts:
Simon Luttrell (HS0ZIB) on June 23, 2011

Radio amateurs now have a helping hand in their quest for contacting rare or distant radio
stations. 'DX Station' is an innovative SMS text message service that alerts radio amateurs
when the sought-after radio station's signal is spotted on the radio dial.

In this internet age, the radio amateur hobby is still very popular, with millions of licensed
'hams' around the world. Many of them operate on the shortwave bands, where it is possible
with relatively simple equipment to contact radio amateurs in distant countries.

The American Radio Relay League (ARRL) offers a range of awards and certificates for
amateurs who succeed in contacting other hams in more than 100 countries. Those who
achieve contacts with every country are eligible to join the coveted 'Honor Roll' - an
achievement which can take decades of hard effort to obtain. Awards are also offered by the
Radio Society of Great Britain (RSGB) for contact with ham stations on islands.

To assist in tracking down those elusive radio signals from far-flung corners of the globe, DX
Station operates a network of automated radio receivers, which constantly monitor the radio
amateur bands for sought-after stations, and then instantly sends a text message alert to
those hams who have indicated their interest in contacting that particular 'DX' station.

The use of real-time text messages gives subscribers to DX Station a competitive advantage,
since they can hopefully contact the distant radio station before their colleagues join the fray.
Since thousands of hams may be seeking contact with a single amateur radio station, the
resulting cacophony of calling stations can hopefully be avoided by being 'first to know' that
the rare station is on the air.

DX Station cannot guarantee that the radio amateur will be able to contact the distant station
- that is down to radio signal propagation and the efficiency of antennas and transceivers of
both calling and receiving radio station. But it can certainly put the canny ham ahead of the
crowd!

The DX Station text messaging service can be used on more than 800 mobile networks
worldwide, and the low monthly subscription fee is easily paid by Paypal or credit card. These
fees, which include a quota of text message credits, are used to maintain the network of
automated radio receivers that the DX Station service relies upon for it's operation. A
reduced fee trial is offered for the first month of subscription. Alert profiles are managed via a
user-friendly interface on the service web-site at www.dxstation.com
