[Dx-qsl] German QSL Policy

[Ron Notarius W3WN]

It's not a German thing.  I've had this happen from time to time; the one
that sticks in my mind was when (many moons ago) I worked a YL operating
under an EI 2x1 club call, and got QSL cards via the bureau about a year
later both from the club AND from her under her own call.

I'd say the best course of action is to return the cards "NIL -- WORKED
DR2006xxx" and see what happens.

Can someone explain to me please, why it is that after working many
special event stations from DL, one gets a pile of QSL cards from the
individual operators - whose calls- obvioulsy-  do not appear in my
log.

As an example In a batch from the Buro this week, I received 7
individual cards from DL stations who claim QSO's when at that
date/time/freq I worked [as an example] one of the DR2006 stations -
for whom incidentally there has been no sight of any cards even though
promised.

Any other countries special call - one merely hopes for a cacrd from
that station - the one worked, and I fail to understand the German
logic on this one.

I have no option but to return them 'NIL'.
