The 6,000 + Bureau cards that arrived in December have nearly all been processed just a few hundred to go. The outgoing Bureau cards will be held back for two weeks until the Monaco QSL cards are ready. Here is the 3A Monaco QSL cards preview. QSL cards will be posted end of January.
I ask everyone using OQRS to please mark your log as “QSL SENT” I am receiving up to 6 or more requests for the same QSL cards time and time again, this can only be down to bad log keeping on the part of the requester. If this situation does not improve I will name and shame on my webpage the worst offenders. Repeat QSL requesting not only takes up a considerable amount of time but also costs a lot of money to finance. Please QSL responsibly!
9M4SLL will be active from Layang-Layang Island, Spratly (IOTA AS-051), on all bands 160 – 10m CW, SSB and RTTY from 10 to 18 March 2013 inclusive.
Operators will be John, 9M6XRO; Steve, 9M6DXX; James, 9V1YC; Ben, DJ0YI / N6MUF; Don, G3BJ; Pista, HA5AO; George, HA5UK and Tony, KM0O.
The group will use several stations with linear amplifiers to vertical antennas all within a few metres of the ocean.
QSL Manager for this operation is Tim, M0URX (OQRS, direct, bureau, LoTW). Logs will be uploaded to LoTW as quickly as possible after the DXpedition.
More details to follow later. 73, Steve, 9M6DXX
I would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, with lots of great DX in 2013!
To ensure that no mail goes missing over the Christmas holiday shut down, I have now suspended all outgoing post. My next mailing out will be on Thursday 27th December 2012. I already have about 200 letters ready to post in that dispatch.
I would like to express my thanks to the loyal support of everyone, thanks to the suppliers that have kept United Radio QSL Bureau going in 2012, thank you to ON5UR Max for the excellent service of QSL printing, thank you to the loyal volunteers of the World QSL Bureaus for keeping all the Bureau cards circulating around the globe.
Thank you to you, and Merry Christmas.

13th December 2012 – 160 QSL cards posted for OY3JE & PJ4NX.
JX5O QSL cards have now arrived. All outstanding QSL cards will be posted soon.
XR0Y – I have now taken over from Stan SQ8X as QSL manager for his activity XR0Y Easter Island from 2009. I have available a few hundred QSL cards. OQRS is now open to claim your DIRECT QSL, no bureau
Please only use OQRS direct option or direct by post.
As I only have a few XR0Y QSL cards, these will be for DIRECT ONLY! No Bureau cards available here until a reprint has been done. Thank you.
The Faroe Islands offer a stunning backdrop that make beautiful photography that look just gorgeous on any QSL card, sunsets and Aurora Borealis are my favourite subject for a design. This new design for OY3JE Jan will be printed and available very soon. QSL Via M0URX.
I have received a parcel from Jan containing 115 letters. All letters have been processed through the log. QSL cards will be posted once the cards arrive from the printer.
Welcome Peter, PJ4NX in Bonaire, to the United Radio QSL Bureau. QSL now Via M0URX. OQRS is now open.
Peter has sent me the full log so I can now process QSL requests. A NEW QSL card is currently being designed and will be printed soon. I expect to be able to post QSL requests by Christmas. Please be patient while I wait for the cards to be printed.
Peter will upload to LoTW regularly. Please use my OQRS for QSL requests where possible please, both for Direct and Bureau. I ask you please do not send any cards to PJ4NX through the Bureau system, if you can use OQRS please use it. Save costs!
Any stations that I am QSL manager for will always be glad to work you, however I ask you to follow the DX Code. If the DX station is asking for a specific area STAND BY and DO NOT call. Some of the behaviour from Europe now is unacceptable and the DX will just close down if you carry on like this. Thank you for your attention.
