Maybe the fraudulent award seeker should just buy a good printer and make his
own from internet images. Society in general has become suspicious and
security minded.
I dont think eQSLs of any kind are likely anymore fraudulent. They are a
reflection of todays technology. Not long ago sending a card in the postal
mail was the only way. Realistically what would make the otherwise honest ham
become dishonest because fax, email, or internet eQSLs are now possible.
Answer, nothing would. And I think that fact is slowly dawning. Three years
ago only eQSL.cc acknowledged their own confirmations. Now the list of those
accepting various electronic QSLs is extensive.
And why not............we put in our time, learned our theory, CW tests too
till recently. We are honest individuals who wouldn't want an illgotten
certificate on our wall. I believe hams are honest hard working ethical
people, deserving of the colorful little piece of paper that says well done.
