The old saying is that there are two times to enjoy a QSO, when you make it and when you get the card. Nice catches. I’ve got 8 boxes of them and still really like seeing them in the mail. Hopefully this practice will continue.
I love getting them. For every five I send out, I get one back.
With the new international stamp its much easier to SASE DX stations. For every DX station I send a SASE to I get 8 out of 10. The cost is only $1.30 each I think. But worth the price of a DX card to me.
Back in the 70’s and 80’s the return rate was higher.
