New WIA National & Inwards QSL Manager : Introducing John Seamons VK3JLS.
John is a retired Electronics Engineer, and has spent his working career within the telecommunications industry in various senior management positions within both Telstra and Alcatel Australia.
John is a keen DXer and an avid QSL collector and has been a frequent user of the QSL service over the years. John understands the IARU, regional and local QSL policies that are in place and is keen to ensure that the QSL is the “final courtesy” of a QSO.
John’s other passion is golf and he is very involved in the management and governance of the local club and he will be bringing this passion, skills and knowledge to managing the National Inwards QSL Bureau role for the WIA. He is very keen to work with all the state QSL managers to develop a good working relationship so the group can develop and put in place a National QSL Policy then standardise processing to ensure cost effective and efficient processing and delivery of QSL cards to WIA Members.
John will be working with the WIA QSL Operations Manager and staff and the QSL Managers around VK to ensure smooth and seamless operations. In John’s working life he was used to all states meetings with colleagues and vendors via teleconference.
John also brings administrative, educative and communications skills that will put to good use rolling out a new National QSL Policy & Process to QSL managers and WIA Members.
We wish John every success in his new role of WIA National & Inwards QSL Manager.
