Germany (Zone 14):  I worked Jara (as DJ0YD) for the first time in March 1977 in the ARRL DX contest and several more times during the ARRL DX contests in 2002, 2005, 2011 and 2012 (as DL1YD).  The QSL on the left is from 1977, the QSL on the right is from 2012.  Father time has treated Jara well.  Only the equippment has changed in 35 years.
