CQ magazine says it has added some new DX Marathon[1] plaques, and that interest in the award program is growing, as demonstrated by a significant increase in log submissions - up 29 percent in 2015 over 2014 - with a large part in the CW-only category. Consequently plaques for the highest North American CW score and highest European CW score have been added. Previously these were certificates.
The CQ DX Marathon is a year-long activity, with a new event each calendar year, starting on January 1.
A complete list[2] of DX Marathon plaques is on the DX Marathon website. An anonymous donor is funding these plaques, and other sponsorships are available.
