[Dx-qsl] A73A

[Tom GM4FDM]

As a QSL Manager I really dont mind how many different calls are in the 
same envelope.   Where the problem arises is when I am waiting cards 
from the printer for one of the calls, or waiting for a log update for 
one of the calls.   Quite often I get bristly emails from people 
wondering why there is a delay in mailing back their cards.
