No sooner than I get back from Ham Holiday in OKC than I see a cool 
letter with postage stamps from Juan de Nova. Or more accurately "Terres 
Australes et Antarctiques Francaises".

For these 'rare DX' locations that I need for ATNOs, I don't necessarily 
need paper QSLs if I have LOTW confirmations. But if I can get the paper 
QSL so much the better.

We have really had a great DXpedition season these first six months of 
2016. Being able to work these DXpeditions, plus not having to work the 
deleted entity of Kingman Reef, just barely puts me on the Honor Roll.

I wonder how many of you still collect paper QSLs?   Also, did working 
these recent DXpeditions boost up your ATNO count?

P.S. As of right now, I have not received a paper card from the VK0EK 
Heard Island DXpedition. I think I requested one. Maybe they are still 
working on getting them printed and sent out.
