Thanks for the contact! While the world has largly shifted to digital QSLing, I still enjoy a good, old fashioned, paper card sometimes. If you’ve got an interesting card, or just want a physical card, I’m happy to return the favor.
In any other case, all my contacts are uploaded to LOTW!
Please note that I do travel for work so I’m regularly out of town, but I’ll return your card as soon as I can.

Card Design
I actually have two different designs for my QSL cards. One for the home station and another for POTA activations.
Originally, I’d taken it upon myself to take a photo at the park, usually of the antenna deployment, and print custom QSLs of each park. This lasted for about 3 activations!
As much as I really enjoyed this process, and I have a dye-sublimation printer from a former project (plus a crap load of media!), it was far too time consuming.
So I finally decided to go back to Randy - Kb3IFH QSL Card. He’s been helping with QSLs for years, and does great work! Highly recommend him for printed QSL cards!
The QSL image is from Oregon’s Detroit Lake State Recreation Area | US-9143, featuring the DX Commander perched on an agressive hill looking into the valley.
