and... 45444 (!), so they must have faded in even before 2000. Other NAm
stns were also audible: in fact too many per channel.

As we approach the Christmas Holidays season, and think of others perhaps
a little more than usual, I've also been thinking about QSLs. Obtaining
this [often] elusive acknowledgement from a station we've heard has been a
central feature of our hobby since it began some 90 years ago.
What began as a courtesy between an individual broadcast enthusiast and a
listener, developed further during the 1930's with miniature works of art
in postcard form, and lasted through to the early 1980's before the sheer
numbers of stations, frequencies and listeners and technological changes
began to overwhelm the practice.
QSLs have become, in some cases, the only evidence left that a station
ever existed. Thank goodness for those who designed them, the station
owners who paid for them, the Post Offices who delivered them and for the
listeners who took the time to ask for them.
All have played a part in a ritual that remains at the heart of DXing.
Today, the courtesy between broadcaster and listener has become less
personalized. As listeners, I think we always blame the stations for this
state of affairs.
