W8DFL QSL Cards - 3/28/2011

Nominally, all of these are from the good ol' US-of-A. But we have some cool finds today!Let's cut to the chase: Awesome!How can something with a C130 and a 21-mile-long dipole not be cool? Especially from the bottom of the planet!We have another one from way down under as well:This is the first of the government-paid QSLs that I've seen. The other from KH6SP even notes "For official use only." :-) I guess if Uncle Sam paid for the card, he may as well ship it too!Finally, just three years after the revolution:Straight from Gitmo -- Guantanamo Bay, Cuba -- we have one from the US Navy![smugmug url="http://vec.smugmug.com/hack/feed.mg?Type=gallery&Data=16375088_3e4UN&format=rss200" imagecount="100" start="1" num="100" thumbsize="Th" link="lightbox" captions="false" sort="false" window="true" smugmug="true" size="L"]
