[K3PZN-List] IRCs & 160 Contest Comments

Mon, 25 Feb 2002 18:38:03 -0500

IRCs and redeeming them are not a problem 
at the Westminster PO on Woodward Dr/Rd just 
behind Wal-Mart.

I recently bought the new $1.75 IRCs there. Don't ususally 
use them but worked some DX that only accepted IRCs.
If you have any of the old ones, use them becuz they will 
no longer be accepted. Grren stamps look like a bargain now!!

Also, I redeemed about 20 IRCs at the Westminster PO.  They 
will accept them as long as the do not originate in the US.

Hi Al;

Hopefully a couple of our Post Office knowlegeable
people will answer this question.  I didn't have any
luck redeeming IRCs at the Timonium post office.

The 160 contest was fun - there were several
participants:  NY3A, N3SB, AK3Z, WX3B, W3JJH and
N3GQK.

We borrowed AK3Z's 756 Pro, his TL-922 Amp, his
antenna tuner, his heil boomset, and made a pretty
good contest station out of the club - good for
several hundred QSOs in a very part time (i.e. rag
chew) effort.  The highlight was being called Saturday
by an EA station.
