KOSMOS Radio QSL – A pirate radio station from Venezuela

I found a bunch of QSLs I had forgotten about, while cleaning up the shack. So I figured I’d post them as a blast from the past.

This is a real Venezuelan pirate station, KOSMOS Radio, which was relayed by a US pirate back in 2004. This is an actual QSL that was mailed to me, it is 8.5 x 11 inches.
