QSL says op was Sam Vinton, Jr. and that he was a missionary with Grace 
Misson, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Mich. I got my QSL via W3KT QSL service. 
There are no other callsigns on the QSL. Try a name search in the FCC database.


>FL8MM - 1972 ARRL DX TEST - OLD INFO VIA W5EGH

The name on the FL8MM QSL is Magalingam Mouttou. I got my QSL via W3KT QSL 
service in 1972. There are no other callsigns on the QSL.


>5W1HK - 1990 ARRL DX TEST - OLD INFO VIA SM7PKK

Don't have this QSL. But if SM7PKK doesn't work I would try SM6CAS (per 
Pathfinder).


>VQ9AC - 1997 ARRL DX TEST - VIA WN8O?

QRZ.COM says the license holder is a James Wilson with a MO address. OZ7C 
gives one of the managers as KI0HJ who is Joy Wilson in KS. I would try 
both addresses if I was you.

Direct works fine for 7X2DG. My responses from him have been anywhere from 
two to six months.
