Updated November 20, 2007
QSL information for N1KI: Receiving QSL's is a
pleasure, and SASE's or IRC's are not necessary to receive mine.
I regularly upload to ARRL's LOTW. If we have had a QSO that does
not match on LOTW, please e-mail me so we can get our logs in
agreement. All QSL's and SWL reports are greatly appreciated.
QSL information for T40C: T40C is a contest station
operating in major CW contests from Havana Cuba. I usually
receive T40C's logs soon after the contest ends, and I upload
them to LoTW and eQSL. QSL's with SASE are returned direct, all
others go via the bureau.
QSL information for CO2WF: Winty is one of the crew
ofT40C. He is very active on CW and PSK31. He sends me frequent
log updates, and I try to keep his eQSL account up to date. QSL's
with SASE are returned direct, all others go via the bureau.
