I've had *NO* problems QSLing with Frank, though the mail to most African countries is rather unreliable these days. If a QSL goes missing, send another, though disguise it a bit better. You can afford another green stamp.
To W2UP: I think that it's unreasonable of you to publicly flame one man as the problem. Perhaps Frank wants to carry out his own QSLing, as perhaps that's a part of the hobby that he wants to enjoy. I think you should be more thoughtful before opening your big mouth to criticise someone you probably don't know and spend less time dictating how other people should live their lives.

Yes, Frank is the problem. Frank is the problem because he knows (or claims) that mail is unreliable in his country. Frank should engage the services of a QSL manager in a country with reliable mail service. There are always plenty of volunteers. Guys like him have no excuse.
My advice is work someone else. V5 isn't that rare.

I got my card from him in relatively short order, but if I remember correctly, I used an envelope from my previous employer, so it looked like an official letter from an engineering company, not a personal letter from a ham.

There have been several contest operations from there, one even by some of our local Society of Midwest Contesters gang. I'll bet there are more in the future. I know the W9's who went there are good QSL'ers. Keep your eyes open for other operations from there. 73, Zack W9SZ On Thu, 13 Apr 2006, Art RX9TX wrote:Hello DX-chat, Gents, what one should do to get a card from V51AS? Looks like this guy believes 2 USD is not enough for him, so my second direct request is unanswered.
