Nice job Steve, how long have you been a SWL ?
Frank,
Montreal,Canada

I started SWL'ing in 1966-67 when my father and I built a Knight-Kit Star
Roamer. I never really got into the hobby to deeply then.

I really got into the hobby in 1981-82 when I was off from school for
Christmas break and looking for something to do I got the old Knight-Kit out.
One thing led to another and I purchased a Yaesu FRG-7700 in March of '82.
The rest is history I guess!

It took me about 12 years to get 200 countries QSL'd, the last 9 years I
haven't made much progress as I think I slacked off a bit! We'll see if I can
pry a few more outta the system this season.

By the way, I use the NASWA Country List, which is available from this page:

Today I received a QSL from Radio Tanzania. This was for a reception on
January 19, 1993! This in one month after a f/up report, v/s N.
Nyamwocha. I had enclosed $1.00 for return postage.

My 51st African country QSL'd and 216th country QSL'd
