ODXA Perspectives is a once-a-month feature on DX Partyline, heard on HCJB, in Ecuador. Hosted by long-time shortwave listener and ODXA member Greg Schatzmann, it generally runs 5 to 7 minutes in length and attempts to deliver news about the Ontario DX Association, as well as profiles of club activities and those involved with the organization.

Often the program features an interview with a member of the club talking about a particular service/event/activity with which they're involved. From time-to-time there's also information about shortwave or domestic broadcasting activity that would be of interest to radio hobbyists elsewhere.

The program also encourages listeners to find out more about the ODXA, either by writing or checking out other sources such as the web site.

ODXA Perspectives originally began as ODXA Report in the mid-1980's, and other hosts over the years have included James Careless, Andy Reid, Cindy Ellen Morgan, Chris Meloche, and Steve Canney. Current host Greg Schatzmann has been in the radio hobby for over 30 years and a member of the ODXA since 1987, acquiring his amateur radio ticket in 1988 (VE3GJS). Greg has had a career in broadcasting since 1981, and is currently the manager of CJLX-FM in Belleville, a campus-based community broadcaster, a position he has held since 1992.
