I can’t help but compare this reply to last Saturday’s reply from Lyngby Radio, Denmark. Lyngby Radio returned their postcard…

Non-QSL reply from Lyngby Radio, Denmark

LyngbyI promptly received this unfortunate and unsigned reply from coastal station Lyngby Radio, Denmark in 9 days for a report mailed to:

Lyngby Radio
Bagsvaerd Mollevej 3
2800 Kgs. Lyngby
Denmark

They used the mint stamps and address label that I supplied, and returned my report, souvenir postcard and blank envelope. Lyngby Radio is unfortunately no longer friendly to DXers, but at least had the courtesy to respond rather than ignoring my correspondence.

Florø Radio eQSL
Florø, Norway
2,187.5 kHz

Full-data eQSL received in 19 days after sending an e-mail to floro.radio[at]telenor.com. A week after sending my original report, I obtained a few units of mint Norway postage stamps and submitted an airmail report. Perhaps I will receive an airmail response also?
