CADXA

Central Arizona DX Association

K7UGA

2025 is CADXA's 50th Anniversary year!!!

We are the largest ham radio DX club in Arizona with over 100 members, many of whom are on the ARRL's 

DXCC Honor Roll and several members have traveled to distant places to activate "rare" countries with minimal or no amateur radio activity.  We encourage any ham interested in DXing to join our club, learn about the many aspects of talking to hams around the globe and share this amazing hobby with us.  Founded in 1974, we are an ARRL-affiliated club and a member club of the Amateur Radio Council of Arizona (ARCA).
