Bob,
I am the QSL manager for the W2GD CQ160 operations and I would just like
to inform all concerned that I have replied to every QSL request
received for the 95, 96 & 97 CQ160 operations.  
Including the inconsiderate ones that didn't send a SASE with their
request.  
If you have sent a request for a card and didn't receive a reply let me
know and if your in the log I will promptly get a QSL out in the mail to
you.
73
Marty, W2CG
