Well, it seems that mint stamps trump all when trying to get replies
from reluctant broadcasters these days. They have dramatically
increased my response rate, and have proven to be less costly. Very
happy with the Hong Kong Commercial Broadcasting QSL, as it was a real
catch in the midst of a 100kW Indian, several other Chinese and the
other clutter to be found on that frequency.
