AMEN and AMEN!!!!!   Cyber is _NOT_ a real QSL!  [And I don't want to hear 
anything from Patrick Martin and company on this issue. This is not open for 
discussion.] Anyone can write up something on a computer and say they heard 
a certain station.

Konnie, it is my understanding that _ONLY_ cyber reports are really wanted 
and all others can go and 'take a long walk off a short dock'. This encludes 
recodings. IF you have E-mail access, and you and I do, you don't get to do 
anything in writing. Patrick suggested that since this is a Canada station 
and they can not use U.S. postage, that we enclose a few "coupons" to pay 
the postage. BUT, Saul said that IF you have e-mail you don't get any snail 
mail QSL. Even if you pay for it.

What it comes down to, at lease for me, is the same ole thing -- I don't get 
a QSL of any kind no matter if I sent money or not.  I quit collecting QSL's 
for this very reason, to much el-crapo over doing things right. It is old 
story of those have money to buy the equipment get to, and those who don't 
have money might as well forget. The rich rule!

BTW- The amount of work involved in sending out a QSL using snail mail with 
an enclosed self addressed stamped envelope is no greater than a QSL sent 
out by cyber el-crapo. I personally have "been there and done that."
