Program: The Ins and Outs of eQSL.cc

This lively presentation starts with the paper cards of the 1920's and 30's
and shows how much time and money can be saved by using the networked
computer technologies of the 21st Century.  The founder, Dave Morris, N5UP
will show how eQSL.cc has revolutionized awards and contests, how it has
improved the quality of QSL cards, the speed of QSL exchanges, and how it is making 100% QSLing possible even for big gun contesters. The presentation will introduce people who have never heard of the Electronic QSL Card Centre, and will answer questions of long-time members. Finally we will discuss the bright outlook for growth in the future, our collaboration with ham radio organizations around the world, and our work to simplify QSLing for portables, mobiles, and county hunters.  After the presentation, N5UP will answer questions and issue Authenticity Guaranteed (AG) status on the spot to anyone who brings an FCC license, and will make special deals available for membership upgrades.
