Processing my buro QSLs, found a colorful one from a little DXpedition to a beautiful island in Croatia. But not in my log, what gives?
Okay it was Armed Services Day cross-band in the US. While I though I always checked my transmit frequency for activity, perhaps I was waiting in line to work the US military station. Well it looks like the operator in Croatia thought I made a QSO, although hard to believe my exchange with the Army station was a mere 59. So proof that I was the lid. Who knows maybe the sent me the QSL in annoyance to QRM, but I tend to doubt it for maybe a rare Iota. Shall I mark the QSL with a post-it of my folly? No I don't plan to apply for an Islands of the Air award - so I will stick it in the box.
Okay the era of paper QSLs is almost over except for the Buro. I do find I have enough of them, but since I only get maybe a hundred a year via the buro I will continue the tradition, at least until I run out which will be a while.
Anyone do something with their most treasured QSLs other than stick them in a box like I do?
