Celebrating the Art, History, and Stories Behind Classic Radio Confirmations
Thank you for the wonderful response to last month's debut of the Vintage QSLs Collection!
It truly is a step back in time, remembering classic QSL cards that tell stories of distant signals, fading stations, and the golden age of international radio. Whether it’s a card, a letter, or even a colorful pennant, each one has a story to tell.
Do you have a QSL with a special memory behind it?
Maybe it arrived during a holiday or a marathon all-night DX session. Perhaps it was captured from a remote listening post or marked the first—or final—broadcast of a favorite station.
We’d love to share your QSLs and stories with fellow listeners around the world.
Please send a scanned image and a brief description of the station or the logging occasion to: w4gvhla@gmail.com
