I use Plum nesting Air Mail envelopes.
The outgoing envelope measures 4 3/4" x 6 1/2"
And the nested return envelope measures 4 1/2" x 6 1/4"
I purchaed a similar size set of plain white for stateside use.
According to wikipedia a C6 is 114mm x 162 mm
which appears to be just a tad smaller than N. American standard A6
envelopes which are 4 3/4 x 6 1/2 very close to the Air Mail nesting set.
What a surprise, I was doing it right, before I knew this. LOL
But if this size return envelope is the Preferred Choice for NON USA DX
stations and managers, to save on postage weight, Maybe I should add that to
my GS/IRC chart???

If there is enough data received from the Non USA hams, I think I can fit
another column in.
Send the info to me directly, w9ol at billnjudy.com.
I will confirm your email and ask you to check it again to see if I got it
correct.
