New Orleans/WWL hurricane 

QSL cards now available

 

 

 

The International Radio Club of America (IRCA) has been granted permission
to act as the QSL Bureau for stations that participated in United Radio
Broadcasters of New Orleans (URBONO) effort.  URBONO - headed by WWL Radio
870 - came on the air following hurricanes Katrina and Rita which struck the
United States Gulf Coast area in late 2005.  Listeners from around the world
are invited to submit their reception reports to receive one of the special
QSL cards that have been printed to commemorate this unique response by
broadcasters to these natural disasters.

Listeners who wish to receive a QSL card should send a standard reception
report including the station they heard, date, time, frequency, and as much
program detail as possible (preferably up to 15 minutes). An individual QSL
card will be issued for each station heard and verified.

 

Be sure to include return postage in the form of mint U.S. stamps for either
domestic or international rates (remember, postage rates go up after the
first of the year), U.S. currency (US$1 should be sufficient for most
international replies) or International Reply Coupon(s). Please adjust the
amount of funds or postage send if reports for several stations are sent.
