Ah, the slippery slope. First it was 2 480's, then a new antenna, next a
tuner, then maybe an amp. Now you want to spend a few bucks on a QSL card
you can't see? Hope your doghouse is insulated. Bring a blanket out with
you. I hear it's cold in Colorado at night.
BTW, while I haven't dealt with them in many years, they were called
International Reply Coupons (I.R.C.'s). Don't know if they are still
around or how much they are used.
