Disappointed :(

hello lads

i really hope that's happen to me will be only mine.

EVERY dx contact i'm doin i always tell the fastest way to get a qso confirmation by email ( our FB adress ) and the e-qsl excange.

I really don't care about postal cards cause i understand, not everyone can spent money just to have a confirmation paper piece BUT the e-qsl cards...are free....

Well...since I restarded i only got like two positive answer...and i've senti like 50 emails.

I really hope this happen just at me but the question is : wtf...we have the same hobby like the one who don't sent the confirmation email....

can't understand why, i'm sad emoticon

Re: Disappointed :(

I've been here before Adrian.

EQSL is just not popluar, somewhere on here I posted the results of an experiment I did. I cant remember the exact figures but something like 5% did reply by email, 68% replied with cards and the remainder replied with neither.

Re: Disappointed :(

I don't collect QSL cards anymore.

I will send a card for an unusual or particularly long distance contact, but otherwise I see it as a waste. I tell the other station that I do not QSL, so no problem as they won't expect one.

I see no point in an e-QSL - may as well just send an ordinary e-mail.

Re: Disappointed :(

I will send QSL card if asked or if its a bit special but not tried EQSL. I have had about 3 emails after qso`s with photos of there station and have always replied to them-had 1 email with a recording of our qso, that was cool-sounded very welshy on it though!
