[ForSale-Swap] All Subscribers, Please Read

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

Lloyd Godsey, KK7IZ of Mesa, Arizona, USA is making the following offer in an
effort to help generate money to fund the operation of qth.net/qsl.net 

As some of you know, Al Waller, K3TKJ is the owner and this is his hobby. He
does not do this for commercial purposes, never has, and he hopes he never has
to either. He started it for a few Ham friends and it has grown into the largest
radio hobbyists service in the world. But it takes money to pay for the two T1
lines that handle your list post traffic to qth.net and qsl.net web sites. He
depends on your donations to keep the servers serving up the priceless technical
information, the timely answers to your wide and often unique questions, your
personal non-commercial items for sale or swap, the Ham news in all fifty
states, the logs and tidbits for users of the short-wave list and dozens of
other special lists covering a plethora of topics and much more. Unless each of
us contribute financially to this wonderful service to keep it operating, one
day we will lose it. Al can no longer give us this out of his own pocket as he
did for a number of years. It has grown far beyond anything he ever imagined and
is way too valuable to simply stop doing. So we all need to send him whatever we
can, be it a dollar or twenty dollars or more. Every dollar helps keep the hard
drives spinning 24/7/365.26 

You can make a donation at one of the following web sites or by regular mail.   

	
For PayPal: k3tkj at qsl.net   	
	
For a credit card on the secure server: proxy.qsl.net   	
	
Regular mail: QSL.NET, C/O Al Waller, K3TKJ, 34087 Old Hickory Road, Laurel, DE
19956 	
	
Please make checks payable to: QSL.NET 	
	
Al Waller keeps all of your information private. Unlike many other services that
handle mail lists and/or web sites, he does 'NOT' sell or otherwise distribute
your personal information to anyone for any reason! He does everything within
his power to protect your identity and to keep these mail lists commercial free,
totally operated by volunteers and devoted to all facets of the Ham Radio and
radio hobbyists areas of interest.    	
	
Now listen up, as right now Lloyd Godsey is going to make your donation a little
extra special by offering: 	
"I am donating 4 reprint copies of the 1937 Kenyon Transmitter manual  and 4
copies of KK7IZ's Archives CD to the 4 people who donate the most to QSL.net
by 2400 hours PST December 31 2003. You, Duane W8DBF, handle the logistics. I
will even
send you the stuff for distribution and I will pay all postage."	
	
Do NOT send any donations to me! All are to be sent to Al Waller at the above
addresses. Al, and ONLY Al, will know who donates and the amount! When the time
for getting one of the prizes Lloyd, KK7IZ has donated has elapsed, Al Waller
will notify me of the four winners. Just names, no amounts! Whereupon I will
publically announce the winners names and mail out the prizes. 	
	
Thanks to Lloyd for donating these items, thanks to Al Waller for providing us
with this fabulous service unequalled anywhere at any price by anyone and thanks
to each of you for helping to make it continue to happen.
