QSLs from Hitmix Radio and Radio Felix

Two new QSLs arrived today. One from German station Hitmix and the other from a new station heard for the first time this weekend, Radio Felix.

In an email, Radio Felix said he operated last in the early 1990s. In those days he used the name Lowland, but he added he is nothing to do with the current Radio Lowland. He was using 10 watts.

Thanks for the QSLs.
