QSL Manager’s Society

QSL Manager’s Society






Quality QSL Managers
Created to protect and preserve Amateur Radio DX and DXpedition logs and to make QSL cards available for ALL such logs, no matter how old....
To provide a place where quality QSL managers can pool their resources.....
To provide a place where DX and DXpeditions can secure a quality QSL manager!

The QSL Manager's Society was organized to have a single point of contact for quality QSL managers on the "internet"
and to promote fair and uniform guidelines for quality QSL managers.
Would you like to become a member of the QSL Manager's Society ?
Requirements:
1. You must be, or want to be a QSL Manager...
2. You must agree to the entire "QSL Manager's Creed".

QSL Manager’s Creed
I agree to save and preserve all DX and DXpedition logs in my possession.

I agree to NEVER close a log.

If I am unable to fulfill my duties as a QSL manager I shall transfer such duties to a responsible person willing to take on the responsibility, OR contact the QSL Manager's Society for a referral.

I shall answer ALL direct QSL requests as long as sufficient funds for return postage are provided. Any QSLs sent without adequate funds for return postage shall be answered via the bureau.

I shall accept, and answer ALL QSL requests sent via the bureau by answering them via the bureau.

I will answer SWL cards.

I agree to ONLY provide QSL cards for QSO's that are "in the log".

I agree to return any QSL cards where QSO's were not in the log, and include an appropriate note.

I will require full matching log data for any logs that are online.

I agree to be accessible via email if at all possible.

In the event of an untimely postage increase, I agree to make up the difference on any delayed outgoing mail.

I shall keep separate, all IRC's and money received with the cards. I will use this kitty to pay for my QSL manager expenses such as stamps, QSL cards, and all bureau expenses. I understand that I may have to contribute my own personal funds to this kitty from time to time. (Exception: there could be special arrangements made with DXpeditions for handling money/contributions)

I will never "close" a log.

In the event that Electronic QSLing becomes a reality, I agree to ALWAYS provide a "physical" QSL card if one is requested.

I agree to be fair at all times.

I agree to the following statement:
"Donations are NEVER required, but ALWAYS appreciated."
