Charlie, I think any US ham should send any DX ham FIVE US DOLLARS freely if he wants a card back. Can we be so cheap otherwise? No one is gonna get rich at ham radio, believe me. If u disagree with me, please walk in the shoes of DX ops of modest means; then decide. 73 I doubt

I am disappointed to hear that any USA ham would not want to be generous with DX QSLing. A can of sugar water soda out of the vending machine is now a US dollar. We gotta get away from the old ideas that somehow we are owed a QSL card and want to send the minimum or less to help get one. I

[DX-CHAT] QSL Costs

2005-07-18 Thread Mike Mattes
One of the most irritating things in QSLing is the DX op who complains about theft in his country's postal system yet never gets a manager in another country with a more secure postal system. One has to wonder if such stations aren't DXing for dollars. If they're not, then they should either
