[SEDXC] SEDXC Digest, Vol 132, Issue 12

[Tom W8JI]

Not that it matters, but I don't think trademarking a phrase used earlier 
without assuming the brand association is actually enforceable.

DXpedition is a commonly used generic term, and "DXpedition of the year" was 
used by the ARRL and other groups and clubs for years.

Hamvention is a unique name that was never used prior to the Dayton group, 
so it is a lot different. It was not previously used and is associated with 
the Dayton group.

Be advised that the phrase "DXpedition of the Year" is a registered trade 
mark of the SouthWest Ohio DX Association. They have been the official 
awarding organization for many, many years. They own that trademark, like 
Dayton Amateur Radio Association owns "HamVention"

Not sure if anyone is interested but the ballot for DXpeditions of the year 
are posted. You get 2 choices but there were some many good ones I would 
hope for 3.

I looked through the list earlier and agree it's tough this year. A lot of 
excellent dxpeditions.

Quite a few with SEDXC participants also.
