1AQD / NU1AQD / W1AQD QSL Collection

My great uncle Louis C. Brown, "Brownie" in Maine, was active in amateur radio between 1927 and 1936. I have 250+ of his QSLs from United States stations and additional cards from DX hams. I will gladly provide digital images of individual QSLs for relatives or others who wish to have them for their research or records. Those that have been requested are stored here.

Trivia

  • W1AQD was the first U.S. station to work England (G2OD) on 10 meters.
  • 1AQD's method for controlling regeneration was published as a Stray on page 20 of the April 1928 QST.
  • In the section "Operating a Station" in The Radio Amateur's Handbook, Sixth Edition (1929), W1AQD is the callsign used to demonstrate use of the prosign AR.

Hi,

I am the current holder of the callsign w4vx and would very much like to see a 30's vintage QSL from a previous holder of the call. If you could scan that in and send it to me that would be great!

Regards

Chris, W4VX

Chris, you'll now find the scans here. Happy to give you a little history on your callsign. Sorry it was a response to an OO report instead of confirming a QSO!

Scott - Thanks for scanning in the QSL card. I appreciate the bit of call history. I hope the OO report is not a sign of things to come ;) 73's Chris W4VX
