Misdirected QSL: WWYD?
So, someone with a callsign similar to mine* has been operating from
various Caribbean QTHs on and off for quite a few years.
As you might guess, I occasionally get QSL cards for Caribbean
operations. Wish I'd spent February on Bonaire, but I was freezing up
here in Tennessee...
I guess I see several possible ways to dispose of these cards, some more
ethical than others:
- Forward them to Jim.
- Return them to the sender with a note "Sorry, I've never operated from
Bonaire".
- Return them to the sender with a note "Sorry, I've never operated from
Bonaire - I think you worked someone else with a similar callsign." - but
not tell them what that similar callsign is.
- Return them to the sender with a note "Sorry, I've never operated from
Bonaire - " and tell them who I think they worked.
- Throw them out.
- QSL the "contact" with one of my cards with "PJ2/" written on it. (uh,
yeah...)
I've been doing #1, but on further thought that really doesn't make much
sense either. What do you think?
