Tonight I received an email from Jim Tharp RF engineer at KIRO, KTTH and KBSG. He is also a ham operator WA7KYI. He told me to send a hard copy letter of reception for a hard copy QSL. He also told me that he has recently taken over the duties of QSL Manager and that past reception reports have been ignored.
