- QSL -
Please pay attention to my QSL policy:

• Bureau:
  QSL card can be sent via the bureau and will be answered
• Direct:
  If you send a QSL card directly by post, please don't add any IRCs, postage or money (pse save it for OMs in poor countrys). It is a pleasure for me to return my QSL card. Please add only a self-addressed envelope.
• eQSL:
  I dont use eQSL. It is possible to send me an eQSL (via eQSL.cc), because someone starts to send eQSLs and an account for me was created, but I do not answer eQSLs. I pay attention to received eQSLs and make notes in my log.
  I am collecting paper QSLs, so if you want to change QSL card, please use the paper ones. It beats me down, if I see those halfhearted eQSL cards, which are using the standard format without any personal stuff and sometimes even without callsign!

Its just for fun. Just send me an extract of your log and you will receive the colored diploma. Be the first who will receive the diploma.
