Further proofs!
A large part of the supporters received this post card directly from PORT BLAIR.
Someone didn't receive it and I apologize if I wasn't able to write to everyone and above all I'm sorry to anyone who didn't receive it due to the postal service.

Friday the 22nd was the day of the complete recovery of the luggage including radios and antennas. Everything returned home safe and intact.
In the photo on the left I am in the square of the "Cellular Jail". In the photo on the right I am on the seafront in Portblair with the landlord who made the radio activity of 253DA/0 possible

The design of the QSL is completed. The QSL for supporters is ending. The start of sending confirmations with QSL is scheduled for middle January 2025.

A lot of people do not read info qsl managment. People do payement on Paypal and after send an email to tell that has payed. Send a messenger to tell... Is not the right via.
When you have done payement on PAYPAL... all is on paypal and the manager see everything. If missing any info you will be contached.
Otherwise you will not receive any response.Be judicious and ask your neighbor. It seems that many have never requested a QSL. This attitude on social media is the same attitude on the radio. All this must change for this and the next DX expeditions of all groups. Come on guys!
