UA4WHX, know DXer, has decided to not use Logbook of the World anymore. On its QRZ.com page he made an interesting point : LotW is a database but does not allow you to delete/modify your data. So this is a new poll to know your opinion.

Please do send me an e-mail (xv4y null@null qslwatch NULL.com) if you want to propose answers you think pertinent for this poll.

This is another survey to see how many QSL we request per year. In this poll please don’t count the one you request by bureau. The goal is to see how much we are used to spend for our hobby in QSLing.

Please do send me an e-mail (xv4y null@null qslwatch NULL.com) if you want to propose answers you think pertinent for this poll.

The third survey try to draw a picture of the real cost of sending a QSL. Postage costs have increased everywhere (it seems) but may vary greatly from place to place. Please give us your experience for a QSL send in the last 12 months to the furthest possible location (at least a different continent).

Here is a second survey. The first one clearly showed that QSL Bureau is still alive but LotW arrives second (far behind). As HAM Radio is a scientific a technology hobby, I am surprised of the lack of interest to LotW. Why ? What about you ? Are you a Logbook of the World user (perhaps among other QSL ways) ?

Following a discussion initiated by the Intrepid DX Group (Paul N6PSE) about their next DXpedition QSL policy, I have decided to start a small poll. The question is simple : Do you think the QSL Bureau system still have a role to play in the 21st century Amateur Radio hobby ?
