Background
==========

Formed in January 1996, in Melbourne, Australia, the EDXP is a society to bring together relevant information about World Radio High Frequency
Broadcasting, and Australian domestic broadcasting, in a structured and timely manner. Information is contributed by members or researched by the
EDXP administration. Most members reside in Australia.

Special free guest membership is available at http://edxp.org

The EDXP pioneered the use of electronic mail in Australia for collaboration between members, and celebrates its 13th birthday on January 4, 2009, moving
