Please note the address for reports and be certain to place at the bottom "via
UK and Ascension Island", which will hopefully thwart mail theft which seems to
have occurred when the mail went through Cape Town, SA.

I swear by, not at, Drake receivers.

And, as always, don't do business with The Huntington Investment Company.

Looking at the sailing schedules of the RMS St. Helena, the QSL's are
not going to be received or replied to anytime very fast. See:

Not everyone of the voyages goes to Ascenscion Isl. for the mail to be
uplifted via the RAF, so it may pay to send it twice, one via Cape
Town and one via Ascencion Isl. for the best and fastest outcome.

Every wish for good reception on the 15th.

John, they never are. However, it does seem that the previous thefts of reception
reports (and perhaps other mail) have been traced to Cape Town.

Someone seems to have discovered that there is $$$ inside the envelopes.
