[SFDXA] Preservation Project - W4FRU Logs

[Bill Marx]

 I received this note from N2OO
-Bill W2CQ



> Attention all 100 proud QSL Manager's Society members in NORTH AMERICA!
> Last month I was deeply involved in saving some 60 paper logs and perhaps
> about 100,000 blank QSLs from a QSL manager who couldn't do it any more. I
> wrote an article on the experience and sent it to the DX news resources last
> week.
> I have attached the "original" article, complete with a few pictures.
> I just realized that SOME of these "DX Newsletters" do some of their own
> editing. So, in order to avoid any confusion I thought it best for you ALL
> to see the complete original article.
> This was quite a large endeavor. Special thanks to N1IBM for accompanying me
> on the trip.
> The 13 volunteers were picked geographically and then randomly. Out of 14
> asked, 13 volunteered.
> In order to avoid conflict, all volunteers were asked if they would be
> willing to take "some paper logs". I chose "who got what" primarily based on
> "what logs and cards would fit in a box".  :-)
> Some logs were small but there might be hundreds of blank cards to go with
> it. Some logs were huge (largest was over 12 inches THICK!) but there might
> only be a handful of cards. Etc Etc... A few logs had way too many cards to
> ship, so I kept them myself. I probably put over 80 hours into this project
> so far. What a rewarding experience. One that I would not hesitate doing
> again.
> THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
> Keep up the great work out there!
> 73!
> See ya' in the Pileups!
