From the eQSL FAQ page:
\nClever hams were sending electronic QSL cards by e-mail years ago. Back then, that was the only way to send them.<\/p>\n

But e-mail is not a very easy way of exchanging cards. So, in 1998, we created the first eQSL exchange and called it www.QSLCard.com, and it has attracted a huge following. Our system does not use e-mail at all. So you really don’t “send” eQSLs. Instead, it stores your log in a large database. When another user uploads his log, we look at all the log entries that “match”, and allow you to display and print eQSLs from those matching log entries.<\/p>\n

In April, 2000, we converted the entire system to a very robust and high tech database-oriented system and renamed our site www.eQSL.cc, the Electronic QSL Card Centre.<\/p>\n

We are now the ONLY exchange for electronic QSL cards, with 56.0 million eQSLs from 302 countries currently online.<\/p>\n

And, since virtually all of our technology is covered by patents pending, you can be assured that this will continue to be the place to maintain your online eQSL log! <\/p>\n

Some amateur radio operators will only use eQSL as a method to exchange QSL cards – other won’t use it at all. I will admit, it is a little unsatisfying receiving an eQSL as compared to receiving an actual QSL card in the mail.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
