Vintage KKG0367 Ham Radio QSL Card Bethlehem PA

Description: Vintage KKG0367 Ham Radio QSL Card Bethlehem PA From Wikipedia:A QSL card is a written confirmation of either a two-way radiocommunication between two amateur radio or citizens band stations; a one-way reception of a signal from an AM radio, FM radio, television or shortwave broadcasting station; or the reception of a two-way radiocommunication by a third party listener. A typical QSL card is the same size and made from the same material as a typical postcard, and most are sent through the mail as such. QSL card derived its name from the Q code "QSL". A Q code message can stand for a statement or a question (when the code is followed by a question mark). In this case, 'QSL?' (note the question mark) means "Do you confirm receipt of my transmission?" while 'QSL' (without a question mark) means "I confirm receipt of your transmission." During the early days of radio broadcasting, the ability for a radio set to receive distant signals was a source of pride for many consumers and hobbyists. Listeners would mail "reception reports" to radio broadcasting stations in hopes of getting a written letter to officially verify they had heard a distant station. As the volume of reception reports increased, stations took to sending post cards containing a brief form that acknowledged reception. Collecting these cards became popular with radio listeners in the 1920s and 1930s, and reception reports were often used by early broadcasters to gauge the effectiveness of their transmissions. Note that some of the images may be scans of the actual photograph. Scans sometimes show lines from the scanner that are not actually on the photo itself and uneven lighting showing as dark edges. Please view all images to determine condition. Please note that this item is coming from my smoke free home. However some items that were in this particular lot do have trace remnants of long ago tobacco smoke as part of their history.
