Of course I put a $ or two in the envelope for the kind individual at CRI who will forward your report. A few weeks after following the above procedure, I received my QSL from Pyongyang.

The letter might be opened along the way, but it would be delivered to the final address. -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 100,000 Newsgroups - 19 Different Servers! =----- |

I don't know who is intercepting the letters. Some are intercepted in the South, some in Japan. Those obviously opposed to the N. Korean regime. Might I suggest you write to your Congressman or Congresswoman and ask them! Meanwhile, if you want a QSL from N. Korea, it's obviously best to follow a circuitous route.

Meanwhile, if you want a QSL from N. Korea, it's obviously best to follow a circuitous route. Maybe you could send it to the Permanent Mission of the People's Republic of Korea to the United Nations. http://www.embassyworld.com/embassy/north_korea1.html has a link to the address: The Permanent Mission of the Republic of Korea to the United Nations 335 East 45th St, New York, NY10017 Tel 212-439-4000 Fax 212-986-1083 http://www.un.int/korea/apm.html says: The Korean Mission is currently headed by H.E. Mr. KIM Sam-hoon, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary, Permanent Representative. In November 1999, the Korean Permanent Mission moved to its present address, 335 East 45th Street, between 1st and 2nd Avenues, in New York City. The Mission's 11-story building is one of the recent works by the world-renowned architect, Mr. I. M. Pei. The building contains exhibition rooms, an outdoor garden and a conference room, all of which carry a traditional Korean touch. Tell them I sent you. |

Not a UN member? You'd better return to school because you've flunked this class! Both Korea's were admitted to the UN in 1991. Now... come back again when you get your info straight!
