Title: The last SWL card

When was the last time you got a SWL card?(if at all)

My first one came in the mail a few days ago from VP5DX1A. It was interesting because I never thought I\'d get one!

That would have been about 15 years ago. Can even remember the call. I will have to dig it up.

But I did get one yesterday form YV4DYJ
Valencia Carabobo Venezuela
That was from a qso on one of the FM sats.
Just thought I mention that.

I wonder if you can still get a short wave callsign.

Gosh that was the 90s or so, I think around 1995.

It was either HCJB or Radio Ukraine International.

As a high school student, QSLing was too expensive for me, so I could only afford a few.
