More than half of my QSL cards for Worked All States CW from England are from novices I contacted in 1979 - 1980 between 21.1 and 21.2 MHz. One YL thanked me on her card for slowing down to her 5 wpm and she has been a friend ever since. I have half a dozen or so cards from USA novices where I was their first DX and one who was probably terrified because I was his first ever contact. It's sad listening to the silence in that band segment these days.
