Without carrying this discussion to extremes (i.e., my QSL card is better than
your card), I used Gennady UX5UO for my last (2004) mini-DXpedition to
Labrador (as VO2/K2FRD, now VO2FS). While I ordered 1500, he sent over 3000 at
a very, very reasonable cost. The cards arrived back at my home
DXpeditions to KP1/5. Good thing for me since Caribbean contacts are difficult
from my particular Arizona QTH under current propagation conditions :-( .

Please tell me this isn't a serious thread. Maybe it's just something to keep
our minds on DX while Cycle 24 warms up (if it ever does)... I should live long

Steve, I obtained my first Vibroplex bug in 1961, quickly imprinted on it (hey,
I was only 15) - dah with pointer finger, dit with thumb. And there is no way I
could ever reverse this - lack of flexible brain power on my part. Thus, every
subsequent means I used to send code was contrasted with
Norm, you bring up a possibility I never before considered. It IS possible I
was imprinted with a reverse dit-dah on my Vibroplex. I had always presumed
pointer finger for dahs, thumb for dits was normal and since these many years
I never used any other bug than my own, I've had no experience
of thousands of dollars; I understand 3Y0X cost over
a million. DXing from the operation side is expensive!

The Follow The Money section incensed me and was the basic inspiration for my
long email to the Editor. His innuendoes and insinuations were way out of line,
so I answered them point by point and took him to task for making such
accusations which border on libel.
As it turns out, the Editor
indicates at one point that he
was once interested in amateur radio and getting a license. Makes one wonder
why he didn't, and whether or not he has some ulterior motive in his little
smear there.
