Re: [IRCA] Aussie QSL Cards?

[mwdxer@xxxxxxxxx (Patrick Martin)]

Gary,

Yes, in the DX the past several years, DUs have not had the signal
strength they had 25-30 years ago. They used to easily make in over the
coast range. While living in a townhouse in Hillsboro OR (West of
Portland) in 78/early 79, 1YA 756 was common on a simple box loop. 1YA
is not that strong here on the coast now! Now times change. I would say
in the late 70s/early 80s, DU had as punch as the TPs, but not anymore. 
   It has been a few years since I have sent any reports out to ABC
stations. I have a zillion of their cards from all states, including NT.
They have always been great QSLers. 

73,

Patrick
