I received a nice package from DL0ESA, the European Space Agency, for a contact way back in April 2018. I remember I was pretty happy to get this contact as they had a huge pile up going. They also sent some bookmarks and stickers which was nice. I also received a card from TX7T, the DXpedition to…

I've mentioned Dan K1TO a couple times, he's probably the most famous ham I know. I worked him in the 6m contest a couple weekends ago and sent out for his card and quickly got a reply. He sent out a bunch of tips to the Florida Contest Group on how to work the contest and that got me interested in…

Got a card from 4U1WB, the World Bank Amateur Radio Club, from a contact back in March of last year. This weekend was the Armed Forces Crossband Test event where amateurs try to contact the military stations by listening on their frequencies and transmitting back using split mode. I was able to…

My first bureau card shipment came in. These QSO's are pretty old. One is from 10 days after I was first licensed. All of them to my old callsign. I'll have to remember to send out some envelopes to the 0 call area incoming bureau.
