[SEDXC] QSL Advice Please:Putting Multiple Cards in a SingleEnvelope

[David Johnson]

Hey Clark,

QSL managers really don't like to receive multiple cards in the same 
envelope for different DX stations.  It has to do with the way they organize 
all the different cards they receive.  What usually happens when a manager 
gets one of these multiple card requests is that the whole envelope goes 
into a separate bin or box and is not looked at again until he runs out of 
other QSL work to do.  You would likely get the QSL's you requested but it 
may take a very long time.  You've got to ask yourself if the wait is worth 
the $1.84 savings.

73,

Dave - K4SSU

SingleEnvelope


I have three QSL cards from me to separate stations all managed by the same 
QSL manager. I read recently that some DX ops specify only one card per 
envelope but I'm wondering if this relates to keeping the cards FROM ONE 
CALL SIGN in single envelope.

Then again, not having any DX manager experience, I'm wondering if it is OK 
for me (from a single call KE4RQ) to include individual cards in the SAME 
envelope to the QSL manager? Should I then include SEPARATE return 
envelopes, one for each station?

Just trying to save $1.84, the cost of two additional stamps to the QSL 
manager. Maybe it's not worth it but my Scot bloodline doesn't want to spend 
more postage than needed.

Thanks in advance for your help. I couldn't find the answer anywhere in my 
own resources.

73, Clark KE4RQ
