Why would anyone return unwanted cards? It sure would have helped the environmental impact by putting them in the recycling bin........Right? I still remember the 1st qsl cards I got and the thrill o

Just a guess...to let the sending bureau and/or ham know that they tried, but were unable to deliver the cards, and make 'adjustments'. Something like the post office returning undelivered mail, inst

If I need a card, the buro was never the answer. If they are for band fills, etc sure and I just hope to get something back. I bet my buro return rate is less than 10 percent. 73 de Vince, VA3VF == W

For Europeans the picture is very different. A lot of them use bureau QSLing as their primary means of card sending and receiving. - Ria, N2RJ _______________________________________________ CQ-Conte

If you have a "no buro" policy then returning unwanted cards tells the foreign bureaus and stations not to forward cards for you. Only some bureaus will return cards, however. I am a bureau sorter wi

But to us, that is like us having a Stateside Buro. I really wonder why one hasn't started for stateside stuff. Joe WB9SBD Sig The Original Rolling Ball Clock Idle Tyme Idle-Tyme.com http://www.idle-

The incoming bureaus don't want it. Sorting DX cards is already time consuming as it is and it is pretty much all sorted by hand by volunteers. ARRL floated the idea but the bureaus balked. I'm also

Yes. That's the 34 ¢ postcard rate as I mentioned. You do risk the machinery tearing up your card and barcodes are sprayed on it. 73 Ria, N2RJ _______________________________________________ CQ-Conte
