DX Code of Conduct

I will listen, and listen, and then listen again before calling.
I will only call if I can copy the DX station properly.
I will not trust the cluster and will be sure of the DX station's call sign before calling.
I will not interfere with the DX station nor anyone calling and will never tune up on the DX frequency or in the QSX slot.
I will wait for the DX station to end a contact before I call.
I will always send my full call sign.
I will call and then listen for a reasonable interval. I will not call continuously.
I will not transmit when the DX operator calls another call sign, not mine.
I will not transmit when the DX operator queries a call sign not like mine.
I will not transmitwhen the DX station calls other geographic areas than mine.
When the DX operator calls me, I will not repeat my call sign unless I think he has copied it incorrectly.
I will be thankful if and when I do make a contact.
I will respect my fellow hams and conduct myself so as to earn their respect.

El codigo de conducta del DX-ista

ESCUCHARÉ, ESCUCHARÉ Y ESCUCHARÉ Y LUEGO ESCUCHARÉ UN POCO MÁS ANTES DE LLAMAR.

.
SÓLO LLAMARÉ SI PUEDO ESCUCHAR A LA ESTACIÓN DE DX ADECUADAMENTE.

NO CONFIARÉ EN LOS “CLUSTERS”. ESTARÉ SIEMPRE SEGURO DE CUAL ES LA ESTACIÓN DE DX ANTES DE LLAMARLA.

.
NO LE HARÉ INTERFERENCIAS A LA ESTACIÓN DE DX O A CUALQUIER OTRA ESTACIÓN QUE LA ESTÉ
LLAMANDO Y NUNCA AJUSTARÉ MI EQUIPO EN LA FRECUENCIA DE LA ESTACIÓN DE DX O EN LAS
FRECUENCIAS QUE ELLA ESTÉ ESCUCHANDO.

SIEMPRE ESPERARÉ A QUE LA ESTACIÓN DE DX TERMINE SU CONTACTO ANTES DE LLAMARLA.
SIEMPRE LLAMARÉ CON MI CARACTERÍSTICA COMPLETA.

.
LLAMARÉ Y LUEGO ESCUCHARÉ POR UN INTERVALO DE TIEMPO RAZONABLE. NUNCA LLAMARÉ
CONTINUAMENTE SIN ESCUCHAR.

.
NO LLAMARÉ CUANDO LA ESTACIÓN DE DX LLAMA A OTRA ESTACIÓN QUE NO ES LA MÍA.

NO LLAMARÉ CUANDO LA ESTACIÓN DE DX INTERROGA POR UN DISTINTIVO QUE NO ES EL MÍO.

NO LLAMARÉ CUANDO LA ESTACIÓN DE DX LLAMA A OTRAS ÁREAS GEOGRÁFICAS QUE NO SON LA MÍA.

CUANDO LA ESTACIÓN DE DX ME LLAMA A MÍ YO NO REPETIRÉ MI DISTINTIVO DE LLAMADA A MENOS
QUE PIENSE QUE HA SIDO COPIADO ERRONEAMENTE.
SERÉ SIEMPRE AGRADECIDO SI HAGO UN CONTACTO Y TAMBIÉN CUANDO NO LO HAGO.

RESPETARÉ A MIS COLEGAS RADIOAFICIONADOS Y OPERARÉ EN RADIO DE MANERA DE GANARME
TAMBIEN SU RESPETO.
