[Dx-qsl] Remote station time-share for only $30/mo!

[Michael Carper]

It seems to me that... with recent rules change... we're all left to use
our own ethical guidelines.  So some of us could begin having eQSL send the
physical cards now.

Look... why not DO this... and it's pretty simple...

- you request a (paper) QSL card via eQSL
- the other station (or their designee) sees a list of those who are
specifically requesting a physical card in eQSL (some admin panel for it
somewhere)
- the other station (or their designee) double-checks their log and
verifies that the QSO is legit... they "verify" it
- eQSL prints the card and sends it to you and charges you for the postage
 (and please either take the eQSL logo off it or change it to where it says
"eQSL AG Verified" to indicate that the station verified the QSO and
authorized the paper card being printed)

Folks... what I'm suggesting is EXACTLY what OQRS does.  EXACTLY.  The LOTW
accepts cards that comes from OQRS... so there's no reason why this
approach wouldn't also satisfy the requirements.

Let's do this and get over it.
