Scope and Content (Abstract)

This series contains a wide collection of amateur radio station’s QSL cards sent from cca 50 countries (mainly from U.S.A.). The QSL cards are a special type of reports on successful radio-connections between two stations or operators. These private (in some cases hand-made), non-professional (post)cards give you an interesting picture about a very unique and unknown world. Miklós Hollós, the collector of the cards was one of the oldest European amateur operator, who started broadcasting in the late 40’s and did it on-going till the middle of the 90’s.
The cards are arranged alphabetically by countries.
