How I QSL

NOTICE:

I am changing my QSL card design, size, and method of mailing - consequently much of the following is almost certain to change!

 

QSL INFO:

If you need Massachusetts, Essex County, or simply would like my REAL QSL card, I'm happy to exchange REAL QSL cards, Direct or via the Bureau. Please read the following...

eQSLs:

As I enjoy the entire "real" card process (yes, real cards, real envelopes, real stamps, real mail, etc.) outgoing & incoming (still like the thrill of a new one in my mail box), TNX, but... I DO NOT eQSL. Repeat - I DO NOT eQSL.

SIZE NOTE:

My QSL cards are LARGER than normal, and measure 4-1/4 in. x 5-1/2 in. (108 mm x 134 mm). They do NOT fit in a #10 business envelope NOR in a regular 3-5/8 in. x 6-1/2 in. envelope. NOTE: if you do not want my card folded to fit your envelope, read on...

SASE or STAMP & MAILING LABEL:

If you can't send a #5-1/2 or larger SASE envelope... please send a loose 34 cent stamp (or IRC) and a loose mailing label (if possible), I will provide the envelope when necessary. However...

SPEED OF DELIVERY:

Sending the right size (#5-1/2 or larger) SASE makes it easier, so I'm more apt to send a return card right away. After a contest I usually receive lots of cards at once (even worse with back-to-back contests!) and I only have one pair of hands!!

HOW I WILL SEND YOUR CARD:

I return QSLs the same way I received yours. If you send me a post card, I mail you a post card. Envelope = envelope. Bureau = bureau. If your envelope is too small for my card, it will have to be folded (sorry!)

RETIREES/FIXED INCOME: PLEASE!

Do NOT be embarrassed if you are with limited funds for QSLing. Chances are you've helped me with ham radio, my Social Security, or were in the Service, etc., therefore I probably owe you! I'll be most happy to send you a return card at my expense. NO PROBLEM! I MEAN THIS! NO explanations, necessary. Just send your card! No stamp, no label, no return envelope, just your card. One way I can help all the OMs out there who have helped me along the way. Thank You!
