I have lost count, over the years, as to how many countries I have

well-over 100 QSL cards (all from different countries).

Threw them out?

Dear "dxAce,"

Yes, I threw them out. I had gotten married, we moved into a small
apartment, I had lots and lots of "junk" (not MY description,
however), and I "had" to get rid of some of it. My (now thankfully
EX-)wife "helped" me with her "suggestions" which included all my QSL
cards and other shortwave memorabilia, my car catalog collection, many
of my books, almost all of my jazz records, plus much miscellanea..She
was very "helpful" that way. I can't recall what SHE threw out -
perhaps some used Kleenex tissues ... ???

Best, and sadly,

Joe
