ANNOUNCING

ONLINE QSL REQUEST SERVICE

(OQRS)

We are offering an Online QSL Request System (OQRS)!  
You will be able to request your QSLs one of four ways:

 

OQRS DIRECT using PayPal

OQRS BUREAU no charge

DIRECT MAIL WITH SASE/$$$/IRC(S) (see instructions below)

VIA NORMAL INCOMING BUREAU (You send card via the bureau)

But please, use only ONE of the ways! It will save the QSL team a LOT of unnecessary work.

USE ONLY ONE WAY TO REQUEST YOUR QSL CARD!
SELECT ONE METHOD FROM:

A.  ONLINE QSL REQUEST SERVICE (OQRS) DIRECT
B. ONLINE QSL REQUEST SERVICE (OQRS) BUREAU
C. VIA NORMAL DIRECT MAIL WITH SASE OR SAE/irc/$.
D. (YOU SEND CARD VIA BUREAU)

 

OQRS IS ACTIVE!
Go to the following link and then click on the "ENTER the site" button near the bottom of the page. 
Then select the "QSL Information" link for complete instructions.

Many thanks to Bernd DF3CB for assisting with the OQRS.
