Looking for advice from those who have more experience with QSL-ing than I have. In the past I had collected a huge number of the OLD IRC's from contacts with JA stations on SIX but must admit I never tried to use any, then all of the older ones went end-of-life so just put them in the house fire one night.
I have recently received a few of the modern IRC's from some JA stations and thought I would try and use one as an experiment. My local Australia Post outlet tried to scan it a number of times and then told me with some authority, if it does not scan they cannot accept it.
Now I know VK is a part of the International Post agreements (forgive me I cannot recall its proper name) so it makes me wonder if others have found a way to make use of IRC's when posting QSL's overseas?
