James,
Maybe the issue in Australia when you lived there, the stations were not
excited about a domestic report. I have had that here. My return on
Aussies were nearly 100%. Japan also is very good as is New Zealand. I
have over 200 Aussies QSL'd and most were received without a follow up.
That was mostly in the 80s/90s. But it was sure fun while it lasted. I
don't hear that many DUs these days. I remember in the Summer of 79
going to the post office one day and finding 7 QSLs. 4 from Australia
and 3 from New Zealand. 2GB 873 was in the bunch with a beaufiful QSL
card of a sunset and the large Gold call letters in the distance.
Unbelieveable QSLs. Ah, the good ol' days.
