TJ9PF QSL Cards Status - The QSL cards for the last TJ9PF activity in Kibri, Cameroon, - Feb 2011 10 to 20, by the Provins ARC F6KOP team are printed. Didier, F5OGL, QSL manager is expecting to get them this week, from the printer. We ask all of you who asked for direct QSL cards, a little patience. The labels are printed and the French stamps are purchased; they are ready to be put on the cards and envelopes. So, the first batch will be mailed very soon. It's useless to renew your cards requests, please don't do. By the way, know that, as usually for all F6KOP's dxpeditions, the upload on Lotw, is scheduled when all the direct cards, and the first bureau batches will be answered, so allow us some months. 73 and many thanks to all of those who called and QSO'd TJ9PF.
