First QSL card

by sf Email

Probably of no interest to anyone outside of the HAM world and very little interest to those within... but here is my first ever QSL card that I have received.

I had not planned on collecting QSL cards other than maybe for the occasional QSO. This was one of those occasions that I wanted to exchange cards but I am not sure why exactly.

Maybe because I am a new HAM and wanted at least one card, maybe because the station was transmitting from what I think is a rare(ish) grid square, or maybe because it is a rare Island on the Air station, or maybe because the QSO was on the 10metre band during a sunspot low and was likely my first confirmed Sporadic E propagation QSO AT 1300miles, *shrug* I do not know.
