51AT/PE005

51AT/PE005 after several emails and reply's from his manager 14AT318 its going into 9 month's and still nothing.



Hi danny,




Sorry, AT France manager must send me QSL confirmations quickly ... I know it's long and I apologize. in addition I moved recently but everything is back in order. as soon as I receive them, I make all the returns.

Today I received the qsl card that I have been waiting for,over 8 month's ago I sent contribution along with my qsl card and return envelope, it was for 51AT/PE005 activation.
Are AT scraping the bottom of the barrel, the front of the qsl doesn't even have the division, it looks like it was bought from a postcard shop and the back is even worse, every qsl card I have and from well over 100 confirmed countries are in my album, I am proud like most DX stations and I show them off to friends and post them on forums, this 51 division card that I payed for and waited so long to receive belongs in my bin, I will never contact a AT activation again..pathetic qsl card.
Sorry but HAS TO BE THE WORSE QSL CARD EVER

On the qsl card it shows 5/5 but from his log it shows 5/9, they cant even get that right.

- Your very quick to bad mouth AT stuff, yet once again heard frantically trying to get ITL for 147AT101!

- Your original msg says nothing about contributions, I quote.
"I will never contact a AT activation again..pathetic qsl card.

- Do you honestly believe that will be the 352AT QSL!

- No one is forcing you to work AT activations.
Again just a fuss over nothing.

- Ex AT, says it all !

More time dxing less time moaning I'd say. Good day!

I used to be 163AT195 and proud of the AT cards i had from all over the world,the card that i had from 51 div to put it politly is rubbish and a rip off for $2.00,on my face book enough AT members have said its a poor card, there again i wouldnt expect you to say anything different being the Kent AT Director..BIG DEAL LOL GET A LIFE.. happy you can hear me call though, never hear 26 div only see them post in cluster.....
yet once again heard frantically trying to get ITL for 147AT101! ha ha ha frantically,your having a laugh,try more transmitting instead of [img]http://i66.tinypic.com/313htl5.jpg[/img] is not a valid Image. wigging i'd say ,have a nice night.

Just a couple of points to clarify.

You've misunderstood me, I entirely agree with you 100% regarding the poor quality of the card. Many AT friends have said the same. That is my point, you are the only one making a song and dance about it publicly. I also received the card and was less than impressed. BUT that IS life. If you feel its a rip off, do not quite understand that, its not a business, you are just paying for the postage, nothing else, Contact the 14AT local director or send it back and ask for your $2 back. END OF STORY !

PS not sure if you are new to radio! but of course i cannot listen to you via GW conditions, i can hear stations you call that say you are ITL! Part of the hobby i thought was listening, not just transmitting !

Enough said on this pointless subject from my side.

Every station that I have had contact with has never said or I have never heard them say I was frantically trying to get ITL for 147AT101 or any other station for that matter, those are your words,
Already worked 147 div a few times and trying to work 147AT101 was nothing to get frantic about, if they come back to me then I get satisfaction knowing that my antenna is working as it should.

and no I'm not new to the radio, been a radio operator since 1989,
QUOTE... EX AT SAYS IT ALL

I'm not obliged to stay a AT for the time I spend on the radio , i have in the past been invited to join other groups and did and I have a few call sign's

Anyways we have both had our say so its water under the bridge as far as I'm concerned and its done and dusted ..YES.
P.S, Just like to add that I have met and shaken hands with Mr Aldo in 1989 0r 90 at the AT meeting up in Wrexham, first class person..73s.

Hi Ranger, contact his qsl manager 14AT318..he will sort it out for you, did you send with the Qsl card the 2 dollars and return envelope,
 
ranger
sent everything from what I remember,
could have been my fault I supose..have been known to forget the odd SAE,
also sent an email but no reply,
I am over it, I found this to be very true unfortunately of many a QSL card sent to all sorts of ops.
