DXing.info has its origins in December
1997, when for the first time DXpedition
logs from Lemmenjoki
were published on the Internet in English
for a worldwide audience by Mika
Mäkeläinen.
In 1998 Mäkeläinen created a
site titled Freeze! DXing Arctic Style
located under the domain http://www.clinet.fi.
In September 1999 the site was relocated
to http://www.makelainen.com/dx.
The site consisted mostly of DXpedition
logs and reports, but included also articles,
audio files, QSL information and other resources
for avid mediumwave and shortwave DXers.
According to Google
Web Directory Freeze! DXing Arctic
Style became the fourth most popular
website in the world in the DX Listening
category.
The most recent history of that site from
April 2000 to April 2002 is documented below.
The list includes the most significant upgrades,
but updates to logs, latest QSL news and
audio files, changes to the older articles
or upgrades in website design are not listed,
because such minor additions and improvements
took place more frequently. Changes to this
current URL DXing.info can be found on the
What's new page.
