My family and I recently moved after eight years at the same QTH. It's
been tough enough figuring out which box my socks are in, let alone
getting an antenna up and getting back on the air. I'll save that for
another weekend.
Anyway, it just dawned on me that the address on my QSL cards are now
all wrong. As I was nearing the end of the box I needed to re-order
anyway and have been thinking about what I want the NEW cards to look
like. So I dug several hundred cards out of one of them boxes still
setting in the garage and was looking through the batch trying to get
an inspiration for some new design.
I couldn't help but smile when I came across the card from K7MOS.
Charles (FISTS #5115) lives in Montana and we had an enjoyable QSO on
20 meters. I sent him a card confirming our QSO and a few days later
back comes an envelope with several photos from Charles with the
confirmation of our contact on the back of one of the photos.

It may not have been a fancy printed store-bought QSL but I'll tell
ya, it's one of my most prized and favorite QSLs that I've ever
received!
So how about you--got a favorite QSL card that puts a smile on your
face and reminds you of a great QSO whenever you see it? What is
special about it for you?
I could use some ideas for new QSL cards...
Thanks in advance es vy 73,
