[Dx-qsl] VP6DX

[Alan Zack]

I made one observation that people should consider.  In my case I mailed 
my QSL on March 8, 2008, with a $20 USD cash donation.  When I checked 
the list of sponsors I find the date listed for my donation is August 
13, 2008.  There are maybe 100 more people listed as August 13. 
Possibly they are opening envelopes by stacks received over a range of 
time and kept in a corner until they got to them.  Hopefully the 
notation of the donation confirms my QSL request was received, opened, 
and is now under processing.  Possibly others who already received their 
cards could check the donation date and see how long it was between the 
donation date and the date they received their cards.

You can check for your call by going to the page matching the amount of 
your donation, hitting CTL+F, entering your call and it will find it.
