[HCDX] R. Kahuzi QSL

DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO 6210 R. Kahuzi Shocked to get a nice reply in the mail from the BESI/R. Kahuzi headquarters in San Marcos, CA today. Confirmation freq folder card "handmade by members of a Radio Kahuzi Club utilizing dried banana bark. The cards are sold in the local markets surrounding Bukavu & the funds raised are used to minister to orphans, widows, and malnourished children". The dried banana bark was cut and pasted creating a scene of the 3 Magi following the Star of Bethlehem. Also sent an info card, a computer generated f/d Ham-type card, and complete pgm sked in lcl time. The sked has them signing off at midnight, which would be 2200 UTC as they're UTC +2. However, they were signing off at 2000. The sign on on the sked is 9:00. So that's either 0700, or 0500. A unique QSL and one of my best!! (hard copy QSLs are few and far between these days!!).
