( The XYL . . . )

        ( The XYL is now the lovely yet reluctant amateur, KC2NXR ! )

AA2C-ette throws the Big Switch  . . .

AA2C-ette is considerably older now -  high school age, in fact, and yes, the front teeth did grow in.

QSL Info:  

Please QSL Direct or via the Bureau in addition to any LoTW acknowledgement.  I am not a big fan of eQSL.cc, even though I am registered there with an AG rating.  I upload to LoTW periodically (at the very least monthly) when I am active. 

Hey, I like computers and cheap, modern electronic communication as much as the next guy, but to me, the best QSL card is still a REAL QSL card!  I have always believed that QSL'ing is a time honored ham tradition as important to amateur radio as the need to put out a quality signal, or to amass all your neat station equipment. 

I reply QSL 100% to all that I receive.  If you honor me with your card sent directly to me, I will reply directly through the mail, no SASE necessary.  If I receive yours through the Bureau, I will reply through the Bureau.  I don't send a QSL to everyone with whom I have QSO's, but if you send me yours, I will reciprocate 100%.
