I got an email off to St. Helena this morning about the reception
report
and whether or not it
was received and if a QSL (verie, for those in Glendale) had been sent.


You are such a moron.

You are such a fraud, 'Eduardo'. Now go pretend to own something, boy.

So, you are saying that MW DXers do not call their verifications of
reception "veries" despite overwhelming evidence from all quarters that we
do?

You are pretty sick. Eating those Lampry eels out of Lake Michigan again?


"Verie" has been the term for MW verification in North America since the
EKKO stamp went out of use. While MW DXers will understand the "QSL"
term,
we tend to apply it, if at all, to preprinted QSL cards that are
reminiscent
of SW cards.

If you look at the 50 Radex magazines from the 20's, 30's and early 40's
at
www.americanradiohistroy.com, you will see countless references to
"veries"
in the magazines... including the spoof columnist "Count deVeries."

If you have access to old issues of DX News or the IRCA Monitor, you will
see the "Verie Signers" columns as well as achievement tabulations based
on
"veries" received. And you will see plenty of NRC "Musings of the
Members"
that refer to "veries" of which some were also QSL cards.

The "thing" you will receive from St. Helena is a QSL. Were it for an MW
transmission, it is a verie.
