Re: [IRCA] QSL archival -was- Re: [NRC-AM] More on mergers

[Mike Sanburn <mikesanburn@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

There are various Broadcasting and radio museums around the country such as Pavek in Minnesota, and Museum of TV and Radio in California and New York. Bob Wien says that there is a nice one near him in Maryland. Perhaps we could talk to some of these places and petition them to start amassing  qsl collections.  --Mike

I still collect QSLs so the collection will grow. Probably only a few "rare" ones in there. I do scan them all in so that I have duplication in case the originals are lost.
