[UK-CONTEST] QSLs - direct vs LoTW

[CHRIS COLCLOUGH]

Is this drop in QSL's being received over the last 18 month to 2 years? And with "common" does he mean UK stations? 

I only ask as per the current bureau issue - again see http://www.m0urx.com for info - which should be resolved in the coming weeks.

Hello all

paper cards, not instead of.'

I checked with Steve N3SL about this (he is QSL manager for about 10 
callsigns worldwide) and his opinion, without doing a detailed analysis, is 
that LoTW has reduced the number of paper QSL requests for 'common' DXCC 
entities (e.g. GM) but that there has not been a significant drop in 
requests for rarer/DXpedition paper cards.

I guess this is what we would expect...
