This seems to me a manifestation of the entitlement mentality as it relates to

pre-requisite and a group which withholds qsls pending receipt of money from

Many of us are in the same situation, Don. My feeling is that it is
a good thing. As DXers, there is no better thrill than when you send or
say your call and the DX comes back to you. Wow! It's like fishing.
You sit there all day and then you get a strike. That's what
