DX Marathon Program Announcement- Port St Lucie, FL

The DX Marathon Program has experienced tremendous growth over the past three years—doubling in size in both QSOs and participants. While we are proud of this progress, we are not stopping here. Our goal is to continue spreading the word and reaching even more participants—especially contesters and those who have not yet heard about our program.

Currently, two-thirds of our participants are international, with one-third from North America. However, many DXCC entities remain significantly underrepresented. We intend to expand our outreach into these areas to share the benefits and excitement of participating in the DX Marathon.

To help fund this growth, we have established a Corporate Sponsorship Program.

Sponsorship levels are:

· Platinum – $1,000

· Gold – $500

· Silver – $250

I am thrilled to announce our first corporate sponsor: ICOM, joining us as a Platinum Sponsor. We extend our heartfelt thanks to Ray and his team for their trust and support in encouraging DX participation worldwide.

We warmly welcome additional corporate sponsors to join us on this exciting journey of expansion. Together, we can inspire more operators around the globe to take part in the DX Marathon!
