Often the BURO delays are because the sorters don't have SASE's on file, or
if they do the address is out of date, or there isn't sufficient postage.
How many of you gave any thought to sending some additional postage to your
card sorter to cover the postage rate increase that took place on Jan. 8th??
Ask yourself.... do I have envelopes on file with my sorter? Do they have
my current adress?
I'm the W3 BURO sorter for calls with a suffix beginning with B.... as in
AA3B, W3BBD, K3BA,, K3BHA, WA3BZ, etc. If I'm your sorter, drop me an
e-mail.... let's work together to make sure you get your cards promptly. I
may very well have some cards here waiting for you NOW!!
Thanks, Jerry K3BZ

Subject: [DX-CHAT] long time...
Hi all;
Now that 3y0x is qrt, I have some time to relate something which seems at
times to be a favorite subject...qsls that take a long time. I have heard
of qsls that thru the buro have taken many years to arrive. In fact, here
at k8wk (old calls wa4hii and nj8n etc) there have been some via the buro
at
well over 10 years. But last week I got one direct that was about 8 yrs
in
the delivery. The Q date was 2/21/98 with c6a/k8cc I think 20m cw. I
sent
for the qsl on 5/29/98. No immediate reply, so I wkd another and subs
rcvd
a qsl for the band-mode. So I was surprised last week to get in the mail,
in my orig SASE (albeit a bit yellow on the edges) with proper added
postage
from 32 cents to 39 added by the sender, a confirmation of this Q. There
was no note and the delay,of course, could have been caused by a whole
myriad of things...but nevertheless it got here...tnx Dave. So...the
moral
of the story...never give up...the qsl u need, and sent for direct, may be
on the way...sooner-or-later...hi...73/dx
steve, k8wk
