From OH2BH and the DX University:
After some prompting, Martti Laine, OH2BH has written a narrative describing how DXpedition operators can more effectively work Europeans in a rare-DX environment. The paper is titled “The DX Chase: It Takes Two to Tango” To be sure, the title is intended to emphasize that the DXpeditioner must guide and the DXers must follow if the operation is to be successful.
In this paper, adhering to his long-held belief that “The pileup accurately mirrors the DXpedition operator who runs the show,” Martti explains many of the factors that influence the successful DXpedition experience of working Europe, pointing in particular to the value of understanding the differences among DXers themselves. A lack of such understanding usually leads there.o failure. Introducing the concept of such understanding is the primary purpose of the paper. You can find “It Takes Two to Tango” at this link.
In addition to Martti’s paper, look for a companion piece – in similar form – for DXers coming in the near future – The DX Chase: It takes two to Tango – Part II by Wayne Mills, N7NG.
