Re: [DX-CHAT] V51AS
Art, I've never had a problem getting cards back from Frank. The BIG problem is, he doesn't get them due to mail theft. He QSLs 100% when he gets them. There is also a theft problem on outgoing mail.

Re: [DX-CHAT] V51AS
I never tried to get a card from Frank becaue I already have that one confirmed many times. There have been several contest operations from there, one even by some of our local Society of Midwest Contesters gang. I'll bet there are more in the future. I know the W9's who went there are good QSL'ers. Keep your eyes open for other operations from there. 73, Zack W9SZ On Thu, 13 Apr 2006, Art RX9TX wrote: Hello DX-chat, Gents, what one should do to get a card from V51AS?

Re: [DX-CHAT] V51AS
Yes, Frank is the problem. Frank is the problem because he knows (or claims) that mail is unreliable in his country. Frank should engage the services of a QSL manager in a country with reliable mail service. There are always plenty of volunteers. Guys like him have no excuse. My advice is work someone else.

Re: [DX-CHAT] V51AS
I've had *NO* problems QSLing with Frank, though the mail to most African countriesis rather unreliable these days. If a QSL goes missing, send another, though disguise it a bit better. You can afford another green stamp.To W2UP: I think that it's unreasonable ofyou to publicly flame one man as the problem. PerhapsFrank wants to carry out his own QSLing, as perhaps that's a part of the hobby that he wants to enjoy.I think you should be more thoughtful before opening your big mouth tocriticisesomeone you probably don't knowand spend less time dictating how other people should live their lives.Regards Dave G0OILBarry [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yes, Frank is the problem.

Re: [DX-CHAT] V51AS
Dave, Not all of us are made of money, so you might want to reconsider your belief that we all can afford another green stamp. You might also want to notch down the aggression a little. Barry is entitled to his opinion. I don't waste time or money sending QSL requests to most African countries. 73, Scott, N9AA DAVE WHITE wrote: I've had *NO* problems QSLing with Frank, though the mail to most African countries is rather unreliable these days.

Re: [DX-CHAT] V51AS
Excellent advice!DaveZack Widup [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: One of my favorite methods is to put my QSL inside the return envelope inside my envelope to overseas. My SAE's are smaller and just fit inside the larger #10 envelopes.Then I cut a piece of carbon paper just barely smaller than the inside of the #10 envelope (the larger one) and put it inside so the carbon is facing away from my smaller envelope (so it doesn't get smudged).This prevents people from "candling" the envelopes to see inside. You just can't see through the carbon paper.This has worked well for me. Of course, I never put ham callsigns on the outside of the envelope and I have the post office put on a printed (metered) postage sticker instead of a stamp when I can.73, Zack W9SZSubscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chatTo post a message, DX related items only, dx-chat@njdxa.orgThis is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org

[DX-CHAT] Here we go again.
We have been here before but I'll repeat for the sake of any newcomers. I received 13 AOL abuse complaints today. Every message from DX-CHAT was flagged by an AOL subscriber. I simply cannot not allow this to happen. I run a commercial business this irresponsible actions for a DX-CHAT subscriber put my business at risk. If it doesn't stop I have no choice but to remove all AOL subscribers.
