| Although there were four amatuer radio license holders in Peoples Temple, only two kinds of QSL cards were made for 2 of those calls. One style is the "Tri-panel" card, and the other is what I call the "map" card. You will find examples below. |

| The majority of QSL that I have see bear the call WB6MID/8R3. That callsign was issued to Albert Touchette. The other "Guyana" callsign was WB6MNH/8R1 and that call belonged to Paula Adams, who lived in Georgetown at the Temple's Guyana HQ. An example of her card can be seen below. |

| All of the QSL cards used a standard "report" format on the reverse side. This is where contact information was written. Below the contact info there was a space for the operator to write in some kind of comment. As I pointed out in my article about QSL cards, these comments were often cookie-cutter in nature; the same 4 or 5 statements used over and over. Examples of these "blurbs" appear on the "blurbs" page. |
