[Dx-qsl] eQSL policy changed

Gary: When you say that you remember those postings, I accept that as
truth. I remember seeing those postings myself.
No, it is not true, yet, that the ARRL is accepting printed and mailed
eQSL cards.
 Many thought, and with good reason, that ARRL reps gave the word
for acceptance of printed and mailed eQSL cards. An eMail was received
and widely published. However, an override/clarification was then
given. The cork has been placed back into the champagne bottle, which is
still full and is on chill !
 There has been some dialog between eQSL and ARRL reps since the
earlier confusion (waffling). That dialog continues. Perhaps this
dialog is do to a significant amount of direct eMail, telephone, etc.
correspondence between ARRL members and/or potential members and ARRL
reps. One outcome of the dialog is the changes made to the eQSL.cc
INBOX display of data.
 We need to be patient and hope that the outcome satisfies the
overwhelming majority. Life experiences tells us that there shall be,
in any case, some number of people that will not be satisfied. Remember,
this is an enjoyable hobby.
73s and Happy (e)QSLing.
