[DX] KU9C QSL Status

Just about to leave to find a mailbox capable of taking 3000 envelopes...I've mailed nearly 5000 envelopes when done since last Friday....and figured it was about time to update status.

I am still mailing BQ9P/YA5T/PW0T cards...but am closing in on all cards received before August 1.  I believe I will be current with cards received by September 1 for these stations by the end of October or the first week of November.

I just received some of the September YA5T logs, and will begin working those in shortly.

I'm a bit further behind on some of the other stations I manage, as the volume is not as great, and thus I've been batching them to make the operation more efficient.  These will be 'back to normal' by end of October I suspect.

Emails asking whether I have your card is not particularly useful, as I have no way of knowing if I have your envelope till I work your card, and then it's only a few days before you have the answer.  

Folks that have included more than one station in their envelope:  I'm working your cards as best I can, but each additional call adds a delay to your response.

If you've sent a card, until I say I'm done, I would request you not resubmit.  The mail is generally pretty safe, and if I have your card, you will get your qsl in return, if you have provided SASE, etc.  A second submission adds to the work load, and I'd prefer you not do that.  It certainly will NOT speed a card back to you.

Email questions to [email protected], but again, don't ask if I have your envelope....I cannot tell.  Also, I'm not done, so if you have not gotten your card, and you read this, then you know that the cards are still going out, so no need to ask that question via email.

I've just opened my 27,000'th envelope this year.....and the incoming is down to less than 100 a day.....so...back to the pile!
