An interesting forum, to discuss ARRL's impact on 
eQSL policy.  

This is a real conundrum; my reason for using 
eQSL was simplicity of providing courtesy responses
to folks I'd worked.  

While I DO log dx, and have 300+ worked, I have zero 
confirmed.  Well...ok, I threw out 250 or so, from my 
old address, and have worked over 300 since moving to 
VT....and yes, over a hundred HAVE sent paper cards since 
then....but WHO CARES? 

It's not about pieces of paper, it's about people.
I like swapping .jpg's with folks I work, and knowing
a bit more about them, WHILE I work them (thank you,
qrz.com).  

Am I simply off in a corner, here?  The ARRL program is
meaningless to me.  eQSL's utility has been reduced 
substantially since the change.  

Fie on the bloody lot of them.  What shall we do next?
