QSL Cards - More than Just a Piece of Paper

During the 1970's I actively pursued mediumwave and shortwave DXing from Lansing, Michigan. And for a couple of years after that from Dallas, Texas. Like many of my fellow hobbyists I collected QSL cards to mark the reception of stations. In most cases, these momentos are not really a 'verification' of anything more than your letter having been received by the station. They do, however, commemorate a lot of work to find and identify the station and then communicate with a broadcaster that may not speak English and certainly had better things to do than write back to an individual listener.

- Logistics - You can sort any of the tables by state/province, country, frequency and report date by clicking the column heading. Click on the heading a second time and it'll reverse the order. Any cell in the table that's blank means I don't have that data. Fortunately, I have a 1977 WRTH handy for some of the frequencies. Disappointing how many of these QSLs are what can only be described as either partial-data or no-data. Proof, once again, that QSLs are a 'friendly greeting' NOT a verification that you heard anything. These days we're depending on YOU to be the jury. Even a sound can be taken from a nearby KiwiRMS and claimed as yours. End of the innocence. Nearly all of these QSLs are for reception from Lansing, MI. Some, however, are from elsewhere. I'll label them in the Station column as: [Dallas] - where I lived from fall 1980 to winter 1981 [Grayland] - where I have done mostly Asian MW DXing two weeks per year since 2010 [London] - where I spent Sundays listening to pirates during July 1978 and March 1979. The final column in the table is a link to a sound sample of the station. May or may not be from the actual date of my report, but it will be as I heard it from my QTH. Yes, I recorded most of what I considered important back-in-the-day and some years back digitized and edited many of my 1 7/8 ips recordings. My audio editing back in the 70's was pretty rough and these are WAY to tightly cropped. Sorry. Here's an alternate way of viewing/sorting things: QSL sort
