Re: [Swlfest] G24R....

2015-03-06 Thread Rob de Santos
No disrespect to the QSL part of the hobby but I think what we all should want
are successful broadcasters. QSLs are nice but if every QSL is from a no longer
extant broadcaster then the hobby is dead. Give me a choice between a successful
broadcaster who doesn't QSL and a failure who did, I'll take the former. And yes
folks that is where we are now.
