[HCDX] RE: Speaking of QSLs VOA etc..
I asked Sam Barto, QSL Editor at NASWA, the same question regarding my reports to VOA, R.Marti and RFE/RL getting no reply. Sam said he spoke with Dan Robinson who works for an arm of VOA and he said VOA is having "budget problems". Guess where the first cuts may be. It comes down to money. Some QSLs are getting through but they are e-mail replies. RFE/RL is QSLing foreign reports, nothing form the US. Good Luck! QSLing a 20+ year old report seems like an awful long time. Too each his own. I enjoy QSLing having sent 412 reports since I began in November 2001, receiving 208 replies. 50% return rate looks pretty good! 17 more countries to 100!
