[Dx-qsl] The Demise of IRC's

[Ken Holdom]

Hi All

I have seen a lot of publicity on this medium about the IRC situation..

>From our previous DXpeditions we are still receiving IRC's that have an end date of 31.12.2013.  One would presume that all country Postal administrations will honour these until this date. Am I correct in assuming this.

I would also be interested to know something about the history of the IRC's.  When did they start being issued, who 1st introduced them etc etc.

Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated

Good DXing
