Don't agree Mike, though my wife would give a more informed view since 
she is a lecturer in Primary Education, ie she teaches teachers!!

No, this purely sloppy editing since the word is spelt correctly in 
other places. Likewise in another article the same word appeared 4 times 
in one sentence, this should have been edited out. In addition, 5 Star 
DXers was written as DXs.

I suspect there are two things at play here. Firstly some of the 
Editorial staff do not understand Amateur Radio and secondly proof 
reading and error correction was lax. I hope it improves.
