My QRP and QRPp Gallery
« on: December 13, 2013, 01:55:11 UTC »
Hi to all,
This is my QRP and QRPp DXCC QSL card gallery. I'm very very proud of each of these contacts.

I made my first QRP QSO on june 21st, 1981, with my Heathkit HW-8, and it was a two way QRP QSO with Per - SM0FSM/QRP

Please take a look at my QRP gallery just for a second.

Fantastic set of QSL cards there Edwin. I hope to work you soon for a 2 x QRP contact. I worked YV5YMA at 1624UTC today on 10m. I was running 5W CW and signals were good, with Ymanol giving me a 579. Do you have 10m capabilities at all for QRP? Conditions are excellent at the moment!

Congratulation for nice QSL collection dear Edwin! It is impressive!
Regarding this i have to say that Romanian Radioclub Association (A.R.R.) had set a nice corner dedicated to these kind of beautiful stories (http://radioclubulromaniei.ro/qsl-ul-meu-de-yo2msb-sorin/, and if you want and have pleasure, you can sent me a story about the most important for your QSL and the condition how you get it in your collection. The volunteers students that are collaborate with A.R.R. will translate in Romanian language and also it will be posted in English version! Also all the hams fell free to sent their stories regarding "My QSL"!!
We will be proud to share your experience to hams from YO and around the world!
Best regards!

HolĂ  Edwin,

Congratulations for nice QSL display, it is fun to look at it.

When I saw your old call I remembered we work before when you were YV5HUJ.
back in october 24, 1980 on 21,009 2 X cw It was your QSO number # 971.

So may be we can have a sked, with your actual call ?

Hasta Luego

Thanks to all for your kind comments.
I'm always listening 40, 20, 15 and 10m at about 00:00 GMT for about one or two hours a day, always in CW.  I hope to make some Qs with all of you guys.
