Discover a unique piece of radio history with this vintage QSL postcard from 1968, featuring a humorous illustration of an outhouse equipped with a powerful antenna, broadcasting the message "GREAT! YOU CAME IN WELL ABOVE THE NOISE!". This distinctive card served as a confirmation of contact for CB or Ham Radio operators Rollie & Nan Eitel, operating as KNH-1808 from Lancaster, Missouri. The front captures the playful spirit of early radio communication, showcasing a charming, hand-drawn aesthetic that evokes a sense of rural Americana and the ingenuity of amateur radio enthusiasts.The reverse side of this collectible card is meticulously filled with details from a radio contact dated August 7, 1968, including the radio model "Lafayette 600", channel "CB 23.38.14", and antenna type "A & E, Beam". A handwritten message confirms receipt of a card from "The Stechers KFI-1097" and expresses a desire for future communication, ending with the traditional "73's" (best regards). Addressed to Larry Hines (15RH-1763), this postcard was printed by Cooper Printing Co. in Kirksville, Missouri, making it a wonderful artifact for collectors of QSL cards, CB radio memorabilia, Missouriana, or vintage Americana.
