Authenticity Guaranteed » AG Required to Join? Sep 1, 2010 03:27 PM (Total replies: 41)

Hi Andy in the beautiful state of New Hampshire.

There is no "fear"-factor in not getting the AG. All our info is so easy to acquire, thus the internet frauds. I just have a LOT on my plate right now, and I mean a lot. I will, eventually, go through the ritual of acquiring AG.

My basic philosophy still remains...with or without AG.

I'm pleased to read of AG being entirely rejected as a pre-condition to membership!

Confirmation cards were sent from one radio operator to another long before there were such things as awards and other paper-chasing events. That includes contests! They were mean't to confirm the exciting event of a successful two-way radio contact.

As I operate 100% QRP, it is still an exciting event.

I will use eQSL exclusively, without AG, as confirmation of my appreciation that the other operator was courteous enough to make the effort of copying my weak signal.
