I would be hesitant about using a $2 bill to help with postage--too
many people in the US are dubious about them, but even in Indonesia
and Svalbard, the standard $1 bill is familiar.

I had the same thought; heck, $2 bills ara a curiousity even here.

I'm currently scouring the city looking for post offices which
actually have IRCs; they're pretty scarce.

I love paper QSLs--I was just looking at some of mine earlier today,
enjoying remembering the QSOs, the exotic locations .. but you'll
probably want to sign up for "Logbook of the World" in addition. It
looks darned useful on the face of it, even if you (like me) still
want those paper QSLs when possible.

I've uploaded all my contacts for all my calls going all the way back
to about 1963; 3200 contacts (I was surprised at how few there were,
but I go inactive for years at a time) and only 31 QSLs.

Hope this helps a bit.

It confirms my guesses.

Who are you working these days?

Practially nobody :-)

Waiting for the sunspots to come back ...
