Thanks, Brian for sending out the notification.

To all club members, we’re sorry about the late notification.  We hope everyone made it home safely in the snow.

Hamilton,

The Envelopes that we use for International QSL cards come from http://www.airmailpostage.com .   There are 2 sizes, one for the return envelope and one that we put the return envelope, green stamps, and QSL card in.  For domestic QSL cards we use # 6 3/4 envelopes with privacy pattern inside the envelope.

When you are sending for a DX QSL, check the station’s QRZ page to see what they require for payment.  Generally we send green stamps but make sure you hide them well in the envelope as some countries have mail theft.  We generally avoid IRCs as they can no longer be purchased in the US.  Occasionally one is required by the station you are QSLing – you can generally find them on eBay.    Some countries cannot accept Green Stamps (India comes to mind) so if there is no OQRS, the other option is to purchase stamps for that country to put on the SAE.  The site above that we purchase the envelopes from also sells stamps for many countries.

I remember from last year’s picnic, some of the non-Ham XYLs expressed an interest in helping with food.  If your XYL is interested in helping, please let Merle know.
