Honestly I have to agree with Ron
As a QSL manager, this has to have been easily the busiest year ever
for people who want "Real" QSLs!

With all due respect, I disagree that "most" of us don't collect QSL cards
any more. Many, a large number, certainly... but most? I'd have to see
some hard data on that before accepting it.
More importantly, to get back to the original points here...
If you don't want a DXpedition's QSL card, and simply want to make a
contribution, then make a contribution! Why clutter the OQRS screens when
the mechanism is already on the web site?

The thing is that most of us don't collect qsl cards anymore but some of
us
still want that "special" qsl. I wanted the ST0R qsl and I certainly want
the HK0NA qsl. I'm not very fond of having tons of JA, D, I, F, K, W qsls
etc.. (no pun intended) and I´m sure these same fellas won't want my qsl
in
there shoe boxes either, just the confirmation by LoTW.
My suggestion: Add extra button on the OQRS applet where you express that
you don't need a paper qsl and the DXP would save that extra money.
