A special QSL card will be issued from this relay site. It is important to send by mail as the US government has suggested closing this transmitter site to save an estimated 3.1 million dollars per annum. If enough shortwave listeners submit reports by mail, the government may reconsider and save the site for now.
Hope you get the QSL. All the best in 2012!
