Episode 71 - All About Confirming the QSO

Hello and welcome to episode 71 of The DX Mentor, I’m Bill, AJ8B. Between the DX Mentor Facebook page, the weekly DX column in the Ohio Section Journal, the DX section of This Week in Amateur Radio podcast, and the This Week in DX weekly YouTube episodes, I have received quite a few emails over the past months about a couple of topics. One of those is the art and process of confirming a QSO and the QSL process. Since we had already recorded an excellent episode on this very topic, I thought I would update it and then publish it. So, here it is, a discussion with Joe, W8GEX, Dave, K8DV, Tom, NR8Z, and Mike, W0VTT.

If this is the first time you are joining us, Welcome! We have a back catalog covering many aspects of DX in both podcast and YouTube format. Please check us out.

If you like what you find, please subscribe, like, and share to always be notified about upcoming events!  

Another way to keep in touch and to see what we are up to is via the DX Mentor Facebook page. I will be posting about upcoming podcasts as well as other DX events so please follow us. 

You can check the show notes for any of the information that we discussed today.

In this episode we will discuss everything you need to know about confirming a QSO.
