Re: [IRCA] QSLs from New Zealand

John,

Great going on your Radio Rhema QSLs. Glad to see Dudley is still
QSLing. Rhema/Southern Star have been good QSLers for years. They like
DXers and enjoy the reports.   
   In the 80s, the QSL count for TP/DU's really shot up. For a time of
several years, the dial was especially full of DUs and 99%+ were
excelent QSLers. Looking back, I think with Australia, New Zealand, and
also Japan the return rate on the first report for 99%. I think only one
or two I had to send a follow up and nearly all of those QSL'd on that
one follow up. Move ahead 25 years, it is a different ballgame,
unfortunately. 
   For the record, many of my reports to asia  last season have gone
unanswered, epecially regional Chinese.

73,

Patrick
