[HCDX] It seems to me

["Hector E. Perez" <np4fw@xxxxxxxx>]

Good day to al my dear friends. Reading at the column from John Figliozzi at  MT from the Monitoring Times June issue  ( a very good one ) it hits my mind the issue of QSLing.

Apart from being an avid short-wave listener, I am also a Ham Radio Operator. In ham radio, the more country I catch and conform ( 218 so far) the happy I will be. But it seems to me that it makes no sense on trying to QSL an important radio station if this station it is airing from a different location rather its country.

BBC and DW for example, will be airing from Montsinery in the French Guiana.

I wonder what others apart from me are thinking about this. Is there anyone out there QSLing SW stations and feels the same way as me.

May you all have a very nice day
