At Van Helder's DX Theraphy Clinic, we understand that DXing is not 
just a technical hobby of receivers and antennas.  It's a hobby of 
feelings and emotions, too.  We understand your needs and desires, 
because we're also  DXers.  Instead of the inner emptiness of 
improving your Countries-Heard totals by buying another piece of radio 
equipment, why not try improving it through DX theraphy?  We have 
programs to meet everyone's needs.  You can trust us.  All contacts 
are treated in the strictest of confidence.  For a copy of our 
brochure, call 1-800 I LOVE DX.  Or, write us at Van Helder's DX 
Theraphy Clinic, Box 691, Mystic, CT, USA.  Yes, even our PO Box is a 
number you can trust. 


     COMMENTS FROM A FEW OF OUR HUNDREDS OF SATISFIED CLIENTS 

"Your astrological hypnosis really works!  I'm hearing twice as many 
stations on 60 meters now!  Some of them aren't even listed anywhere!"  
Q.W., Wyoming 

"I used to hate to get up at 4:00 a.m. to go DX the tropical bands.  
When the alarm went off, my wife would have to drag me kicking and 
screaming out of bed to my DX shack.  After two weeks of DX Electro-
Shock Treatments, I'm as docile as a lamb when the alarm sounds.  My 
wife says 'Go DX', and I do."  Y.J. Vermont
