I did break down and send Bob some green stamps; he was quite prompt with a card for 40M FT8 and 12 & 10M SSB.  They're in my new Field Check stack.  The rest of my confirmations were direct to LoTW.

I followed his directions and got my card for a new country on six in record time.  I just worked E5 for a new one.  He only takes direct requests via New Zealand.  VK9DX requested payment via PP and I got confirmation in less than 24 hours.

If you view VP8LP’s QRZ page he is very explicit about his QSL policy. He no longer does electronic log transfer (LoTW, eQSL, etc) and does not use OQRS.

 

He’s the DX, and its his policy and we must abide by it if we want a confirmation. LoTW, livestream, and all the “we want it now” luxuries seem to have become a “constitutional right” and we’re all spoiled, me included!!!

 

But, once again, he is the DX station and its his policy or do without. For me, I honor his QSL requirements and the QSL I requested back in 2020 worked just fine.
