[Dx-qsl] VK9DX QSOs

Fri Oct 13 06:27:48 EDT 2023

Hi everyone
I thought I would share the e-mail trail below with you, following a 
simple enquiry after sending US 5ドル with SAE for a paper card and a 
request for LoTW credits.
It's very uplifting to see that the ham spirit is alive and well in 
Australia. :-(
I'm not sure that beyond making his behaviour as widely publicised as 
possible that there is a lot more that can be done.

Small denomination notes and coins of other currencies (including 5 Euro 
notes) are not exchangeable at UK banks and thus worthless. Given the 
bank charges, small value cheques not drawn on UK banks are also 
worthless. Applications not including adequate return postage will be 
returned via the bureau if possible.
You are literally stealing EUROS. No lotw for you Phil, ever.
Go fuck yourself.

I don’t expect anything form you. If you want lotw follow the 
instructions on my QRZ page.
And don’t play stupid, you are annoying me.

Thanks for the reply Nick but you didn't answer my question about the 
LoTW credits.
Do you want me to pay you ANOTHER US 5ドル to receive those?
