    QSL cards


    I am right into collecting QSL cards at the moment. Therefore I thought I should start a thread that people could upload pics of cards they have received. Today I got one from ZL9HR which was the DXPedition to Campbell Island late last year. The QSL card is an eight page book. Enjoy.

    Hi All have not got my head around the QSL thing with Amateur Radio back in the day you used to send a QSL card off by snail mail then after what seemed like an eternity you got one back. I have heard now days that you can do them electronically or the old way by snail mail but there are certain protocols to get a card back is this so?, where do you get your QSL cards from ? these day's. There used to be places in just about every state of Oz that printed QSL cards either custom or already generic print ones ,now I can't seem to find any in Australia.

    Drop into your nearest printer they still make business cards... QSL cards are just a little bigger, that's how I had mine made albeit some years ago
