POSTAGE (HK) ---> Oscar, HK6DOS reports an airmail postage increase from Colombia to the USA, Canada, Central and South America (+60%) and to Europe, Asia, Africa and Oceania (+65%). "One dollar is not enough to answer one QSL card", he says, "therefore, it is better to send IRC or two dollars." Oscar is the QSL maanger for CO6XN.
RUSSIAN POBs ---> Victor, UA2FM reports that according to the new Russian Post Rules (effective 1 January 2001) "The mail will be returned [...] If the NAME of adressee who is the subscriber of the P.O. Box, is not shown or if shown wrong" (Item "d", Paragraph 123). "As for RW2F, RK2FWA or UA2FM", he says, "put neither call, nor 'UA2 Contest Club', nor 'Petrovo Radio Club' but Victor Loginov, P.O.Box 73, Kaliningrad, 236000, Russia. In case you send us QSL direct, please keep in mind that our postmen love 'green stamps', they have little knowledge about what IRCs are, but can destroy your letter with IRC as well. So we earnestly recommend you to send RK2FWA and RW2F cards via DK4VW instead."
QSL 4N1DX ---> Please note that K1WY is no longer the QSL manager for 4N1DX. Cards should now be sent direct to Zrinko Zibert, 99 palih boraca 7, 11277 Ugrinovci, Yugoslavia or through the YU QSL bureau. [TNX 4N1DX]

QSL VK6BSI ---> Cards should be sent direct only to VK4AAR (Alan Roocroft, P.O. Box 421, Gatton 4343, Australia).

The postal authorities assure me that using the wrong stamps will incur a penalty".
QSL XF4MX ---> Fernando, XE1AE reports that COFETEL (Comision Federal de Telecomunicaciones) has asked the Radio Club Mexicano A.C. to answer QSL requests for the March 1999 XF4MX operation. Cards should be sent to P.O. Box # 19-500/510, Mixcoac, Mexico D.F., 03910 Mexico.
