As some of you know, I have been in contact with a VOA official concerning
QSL's. The VOA had one person responsible for QSLing and that person
passed away suddenly in 2005. I have in the past three weeks received two
QSL's from the VOA for the same report. One was sent to the WRTH snail
mail address in October, a follow up was sent to the email address on the
web site in December. As mentioned, both have now been verified with a
card specific to the Sao Tome transmitter site (the QSL depicts the
antenna array there from an aerial photo), along with a calendar and
rather large magazine style program guide.
I would recommend sending polite follow up reports via either method at
this juncture, or, if reception is of an more easily heard relay site, a
new report. I would emphasize that everyone remain polite and not
criticize the VOA for not responding to prior reports. Always remember
that QSL's are a courtesy and are never a "right" for DXers.
I would allow 4-6 weeks for a response.
