This thread reminds me of my "old days" .

Looking at a QSL from Radio 4VEH Cap-Haitien Haiti. The one that is black &
white and has a childrens choir with a mic top center. It is to me & dated
12-12-1978 at 2305-2330 GMT on 11835 KHZ 25 meters. Signed by Edna Beachy.
I'm sure many of you have a card just like it.

Heck I don't even fool with QSL's anymore. Seems like it would cost a
fortune & I dx for my enjoyment. Not to try to wow others.

I collect QSL's for my enjoyment... and to 'wow' others! What fun!



When I first got my Amateur license again.....12/18/98 .... working &
verifiy my first 100 countries was a BIG deal for me. Heck it took me almost
7 months. Then I got into contesting & found I could easily work 100
countries in one weekend .

I guess that is one reason I don't fool with QSL's.

But, to really 'advance' in the ham hobby, one has to have the QSL's, to get the
awards at least.

But as you say, the enjoyment does come first.

Hi Emile, try a Google search for "Haiti Radio". You might find something
there to your liking.

As far as I know there is nothing on shortwave out of Haiti at the moment.
