I vote paper QSL cards. They leave something in the drawer for the next generation to discover. In my ham radio work, I send a real, glossy, printed QSL for every non-local contact, with a SASE. I like to fill boxes with the real thing.
My ham cards have a photo of the 1958 Edsel that we had for 13 years (finally traded it in on a Mustang in 2007 -- the Ford dealer actually took it as a trade -- and gave me far too much for it) and I also had some cards printed for Herman Munster -- who was a ham, and one episode had a ham radio theme to it. The card and some info is at my old website:

Ha! I didn't know the Munsters were supposed to be from NJ.. explains a lot.
Very cool. I think I will do the ordered-printed QSL's provided I get the SASE 🙂
Website is coming alog.. spent a few hours slapping it together.. didn't want it looking too professional, and wanted it to look very 80's...
Cool site Mlr.. also like the 100 milliwatts of raw power site. Look foward to see where that's going..
Thumbs up!
ahh that one.. 100milliwatts.com - no idea. i was gonna fill it with content and a part15 related shop to buy stuff thats just hard to find, or newbies might want.. no time right now though 🙂
ah.. you ought do something with it! It's too cool to just leave it dormant.. If nothing else just make it a blog for now, throw micro-casting thoughts into it randomly whenever the mood hits you..
For example, I've been randomly posting stuff lately in my part15lab.blogspot.com - pretty much just the same stuff I've posted before here, so there's nothing new, but it's just a thing.
Oh yeah.. @Mram.. perhaps I should have asked first, but I put a copy of your "amplitude modulation for laymen" response from here in one of my blog post.. I did give proper credit of it's origins.
