You must be a good writer s ! Congratulations :) I have a piece of foam
board that I taped a world map onto, and have a pin in every country I have dx'd over many year. There's a lot of pins g. However, I haven't QSL'd anyone since high school - that was Israel. Best Wishes. |

He's been sending out QSL's to the deserving for a few months now. Mostly it seems for reports that are many years old, as mine was. Steve Holland, MI Drake R7, R8, R8B and Yaesu FRG-7700 |

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.
