Here's a real low sunspot number topic: what DX entities are you unable to get a QSL from? HA! For me it's only four: Phillipines, Comoros, PY0S, and V8. My belief is that V8 is on the way, and that one day I'll get d60VB from UA4WHX in th email. What are you waiting on?

GD4UOL worked on 12 meters in 2000; I have his card for a 1991 ten meter QSO, but he has a note on QRZ.com that he's lost interest and won't QSL anymore.

Try as I might, I have not been able to get a card, for a 20M CW QSO about 3 years ago, out of Monk Apollo, SV2ASP/A. After 2 request, I'm pretty much resigned to thinking it's a lost cause.
Then again, I should learn from past experience... I managed to confirm KZ5 (the last of the deleted countries I worked) nearly 27 years later, after thinking that one was a lost cause!

I got a card from D60VB. It was a long wait, but considering the huge number of QSOs he made, and that all his cards are filled out by hand, he's probably still working on a big backlog. His cards are beautiful, and well worth the wait.

KZ5VV from 1974. I was a teenager and worked DX only by accident. I can't remember if I ever even sent a QSL (as WN2QHN).

I'm trying (again) to see if KZ5VV (now AE8G) can QSL my 1974 Canal Zone QSO. That would bring me up to 324 confirmed, so at this point every new entity is worth gold.

Been trying for four years to get a QSL
from EX9A. Worked three times, all in contests.
Three qsl requests with G$, no return. Emailed,
no response. This is the only EX9 I've ever
worked and NEED the confirmation.

I have two different Vietnam QSOs that seem likely to never be confirmed.
3W4DX and 3W4DK.

Hello Mike, AB3CX:
If you still need Phillipines, my suggestion is just to forget your old QSO and work Charles, DU3NXE who has a really good signal out there. He's in most contests and works pileups like the pro he is.
His QSL reached me in under 3 weeks, which is amazing given the post out there.
By the way, I would love to work, let alone QSL, your other DX's!
Mni 73 de David, AB0Z
