...which isn't particularly far at this point. eQSL'ing is like bulk
email advertising -- it's easy to send out a million messages, but the
return "hit" rate must be very low. I've been sending out eQSLs since
Sept. 2000 and my return rate is dismal. I've "sent" 3842 eQSLs and have
received 253 in return; a hit rate of 6.5%. Fortunately, the effort to
send that many cards is about the same as filling out 5 paper QSLs.=20
