MV5LMY QSL Cards

I used the "V" prefix earlier this year which was issued to mark the centenary of the RSGB. My call sign was MV5LMY. The RSGB also designed a couple of special QSL designs, I ordered one of these and have now received my pack of cards ready to complete details and send:

This is the "Art Deco" design. I selected this design as it is very similar to my first QSL card when I was G8LMY back in 1977. This original card also had a red map of the country to the right of the card.

Now just need to write them all and send via the bureau.

New QSL Cards Received From The Bureau

An envelope arrived from the RSGB QSL bureau a couple of days ago with a new batch of cards for contacts over the last few years.

I really do like receiving paper QSL cards, just does not feel the same with the almost instant Internet alternatives. Even when a card is received several years after the original contact it brings back memories of the time I made that contact and what I was operating.

The following are scans of the latest batch of cards. If yours is amongst them, many thanks for sending the card. You should receive mine as I automatically send a QSL for all new contacts and new bands.

MV5LMY RSGB Centenary Callsign

From the 5th July to the 31st July I will be operating the call sign MV5LMY.

The "V" addition to the call sign is to celebrate the RSGB Centenary. See details at the following link:

RSGB Centenary

I have been a member of the RSGB since 1976 and am very please to be celebrating the centenary of the organisation in this way.

I look forward to working you on the air with the MV prefix and will be sending special QSL cards via the bureau.
