Old QSL Cards

[k9rzz]

First one is from CHU. Now don't move this over to the utility forum, because they'll say "Who cares? Why is this here?" More to come as I come across them.

Cool. Mine are posted here:

The RadioReference.com Forums - davidhcrocker's Album: 1980s QSL Cards

I'd love to see other members' QSLs from the old days. What with internet and satellite radio, I wonder if there are many entities remaining that issue QSL cards.

More cards to follow. Here's some program schedules. Remember that there is no internet in 1975 so these program schedules were like GOLD baby! You should have seen my super cool listening shack back then with my Halicrafters S-40B and National SW-54 recievers ... QSLs and program schedules taped to the walls. Antenna wire snaking out the window out to the backyard tree. I was HOT!

(Photobucket is messed up, I upload the photos rotated correctly, PB turns them, so I turn them back, and PB turns them again! Ugh.)

Good Lord! You were a monitoring fool back in the day. So, I have to ask, how close are you to Sussex, WI? I did a lot of business with QUAD/Graphics in and around Sussex. I remember passing by a lot of dairy farms enroute to Sussex from Gen. Mitchell Airport.

Interesting. I had forgotten that Radio Nederlands dubbed itself "The Happy Station." Some of the guys shown were rather goofy looking, even by 1968 standards.

Wow! Brings back so many memories. Had so many of these QSL's myself back in the late 70's and early 80's.
