This vintage Ham Radio QSL card from K2JGU in Glassboro, New Jersey, USA, commemorates a CW-Fone QSO contact made on July 19, 1955. The card details the contact on the 7 Mc (40 Meter) band with a signal report of 4/9 R.S.T. 80. Equipment used included an XMTR 808 with 30 watts of power, an NC 183D receiver, and a Dipole antenna, offering a fascinating glimpse into mid-century amateur radio operations. The card was printed by QSL Press, Passaic, N.J., and includes a handwritten remark about the contact.The card features a striking design with the K2JGU call sign prominently displayed in red over a subtle world map outline, adding to its visual appeal. This historical collectible was mailed to WN4HTD in Louisville, Kentucky, as evidenced by the postmark from November 1955 and the 2-cent George Washington US postage stamp on the reverse. It represents a tangible piece of ham radio history, perfect for collectors of vintage QSL cards, amateur radio memorabilia, or philately enthusiasts interested in early radio communication. A unique addition to any collection of shortwave, DXing, or vintage radio collectibles.
