A REMINDER ABOUT RECEPTION REPORTS

Do you have any reception reports for our Seven Days of Christmas series (December 25-31) that you haven’t sent us yet?

If so, please do that by this weekend. We need to close the books and count the number of listeners who reported on all seven shows. We'll send them numbered Certificates of Achievement for their dedication. Certificate #1 will be awarded randomly.

Please don’t email us just to ask if we sent your certificate. We’ll post here when that’s done. Then you can let us know if we missed you. Thanks.

Our email is [email protected].

A REQUEST

Want to receive your QSLs faster?

When you send a reception report, please include the reception date and frequency on the Subject line.

This speeds up processing because we'll have the correct QSL template loaded, allowing us to turn out cards quickly.

Thanks for doing this.

ALL DECEMBER 26 RECEPTION REPORTS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED

12/31/2025

EVERY RECEPTION REPORT ON OUR CHRISTMAS DAY BROADCASTS HAS BEEN ANSWERED

Now, we're looking at the reports for the December 26 show. Once all those reports have been answered, we'll work on the December 27 reports, and so on.

It's easier for us to produce QSLs this way because we can use the same template to make the cards one after another, then move on to the next day's design.

Thanks for listening to us in 2025. We're working hard to produce 2026 shows with the artists you like.
