US Postal Service has announced all of the increased postal
rates. See: www.usps.com/cpim/ftp/bulletin/2007/pb22203a.pdf
In addition to an increase in US Domestic First Class rates,
international rates also increase and Surface Parcel Post
service is being discontinued. The loss of surface parcel
post will probably effect the cost of forwarding cards via
the ARRL Outgoing QSL Bureau (unless they are using m-bag
service and even then those rates are increasing significantly).
