RNZ QSL card received

Spinning the dial on the HF radio, the other night, I ran across Radio New Zealand International broadcasting news and music.  A bit shocked to hear sounds coming from the opposite side of the globe at such a late hour I confirmed that they were, indeed, broadcasting from Rangitaiki!  (This is about the same time that I used to work a ZL2BLQ on 18MHz CW so maybe I shouldn't be surprised.)

Sent in my report of 45534 for 13840kHz using their web form and a few days later received this card via email:

I also copied their broadcast on 11725kHz but with a report of 25511 it wasn't worth mentioning.
