QSL Manager

I recently received cards from the printer to face the high number of paper QSL request. As QSL manager, every months, I send through the buro between 1 and 3 kg of cards. Most of the time they are processed under a month and replies are returnerd via buro.

I can easily says that the OQRS system on the website improved the process and avoid to load the QSL buro with un-necessary cards as many DX stations do not even want to collect cards. In addition to this point, it saves money as package shipping costs for buros is getting very expensive.

BV7 est un logiciel de gestion/impression de cartes QSL que j’utilise personnellement depuis les années 2000. Tous mes logs y sont gérés et c’est par ce biais que j’imprime mes étiquettes. Il communique avec l’interface OQRS et le « logsearch » de mon site internet.

Suite à une demande d’un utilisateur, Bernd DF3CB (l’auteur) à ajouté le mode de trafic JT9 que l’on trouve de plus en plus souvent sur l’air. Une nouvelle mouture avec ce nouveau mode a donc été sortie la semaine dernière.

Ne cherchez pas d’autres améliorations ou corrections, il n’y en a pas et cela ne semble pas être au programme des prochains mois. Pour découvrir BV7 c’est par ICI.

In 2006 and 2007, I’ve been active from India after the VU4RG & VU7RG operations. I made a couple of QSO from a local VU station and yesterday, I received the LOTW certificate. The log has been uploaded immediatly.

Gil F4FET m’a informé la semaine passée que les design des cartes QSL pour ses activités de juin ont été envoyé à l’imprimeur (QSL Concept). En avant-première, la face avant de TM0CEZ.

I live very close to the French QSL buro and I try to visit the service almost once a week. Weekly, I have over a Kg of cards, sometime several Kg.

Sure, all are not for me but let say that 70% are heading to my own call, mostly as manager. This really means that QSL exchange over associations is working very fine. The proximity of the buro gives me the chance to minimize the delay between RX date of the card and reply, usually less than a dozen of days.

June BURO QSL batch

Direct cards and those processed with the OQRS are done almost immediatly ! What a great system !

Last days, I’ve been very busy with thousands of labels for QSL; here is a picture of the next batch of buro cards that will be processed tommorow at the REF-UNION, the french national association.

Yesterday evening, I finally received the logs from Gil F4FET. I will upload them on LOTW this week. You can already ask for the QSL using the OQRS. QSL are at the print office and as soon as I get them, I’ll reply to everyone.

Avec l’aide précieuse de Vincent F4BKV, nous venons de mettre en place le système dévellopé par DF3CB pour faire des demandes de cartes QSL en ligne. Plus besoin d’envoyer vos cartes par bureau ou en direct ! Le traitement est immédiat, d’où un gain de temps faramineux et des économies substantielles.

Vous trouverez cette nouvelle page dans l’onglet QSL manager.

After a long work on the files, I just uploaded HK3TK log on LOTW. Now, as soon as I’ll received new files, I will upload them. in case of problem, please drop me a mail.
