[Dx-qsl] LOTW vs paper QSL's

Well Rob, I make enough contacts and generate enough cards over the course
of a year that a computer-generated card is a necessity.  Trust me, with my
handwriting (my mother still thinks I should have been a doctor!) as bad as
it is, it is much better this way!

But at least I use actual card stock.  

I've looked into getting QSL "sheets" of four perforated QSL's to a card
commercially printed. (Blanks you can find... getting them printed on,
well...) I have yet to find a ham-related printer that either can or is
willing to do it, and the local commercial printers thing I'm nutz (which I
may well be, but that's another story).  I was able to get exactly what I
wanted from one local printer at one time, but sadly Hank KB3FNM is now a
Silent Key.

So until I find someone else, I'm just going to keep printing cards on my
local printer.

73, ron w3wn

Hi Mike , I hate to object to that. Eqsling sucks! I upload a crappy image 
and somebody else prints it?  For those of us who like qsling and having our

qsls professionally made, getting a nice card is a plus. What kida turns me 
off  is getting a computer paper qsl or the station telling me to eqsl... As

I say I'll eqsl that day I have an eqso.
