A Really FB HB QRP QSL Card from New Zealand

 
That's the spirit!  The solder is melting.  Note the oscilloscope.  Note the books on the shelf. This amazingly good QSL card was sent to us by homebrewer Paul VK3HN, who made the contact with ZL2BNE.  

This card reminded me of my first real DX:  ZL2ACP many years ago.  15 meter CW with my new Drake 2B receiver.  I had crossed the Pacific before I had crossed the Atlantic.  I ran upstairs and woke my parents to tell them of this amazing feat!  I still have that QSL card.

  1. This QSL Card easily takes the Top Prize! Note the bookshelf, a nod to the works by W1FB/W7ZOI/KK7B/W7PUA/ARRL , the toroid on the bench, all the notes on the wall. This is a QSL card that you display on your wall, not stuff into a binder. 73-WN2A
