Expensive QSL's
 
I was just looking around on eBay Completed Items and came across this one:

http://cgi.ebay.com/1960-Dodecanece-Islands-USCGC-Courier-QSL-Card_W0QQitemZ320001745119QQihZ011QQcategoryZ3514Q QrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Though an amateur radio QSL, this guy was operating on board the United States
Coast Guard Cutter 'Courier' which was in the Agean to relay VOA programming.

That's pretty cool. That ship had some TX balls. Two 35 kw Collins 207B
transmitters and a RCA MW TX at 150 kw.
