[HCDX] 9 remarks from the SRS Drop Box in Eisenach
Since a lot of you use Christmas for (euro)-pirate radio
listening I want to resend a few remarks about sending
reception reports to the SRS Germany P.O.Box in Eisenach.
Many of the following points are valid for other boxes, too ..

9 remarks from the SRS Drop Box in Eisenach
All reception reports to Pirate Stations are very
welcome, but some reports make it quite difficult
for me as the drop box operator.
Thus the following remarks seem to be necessary :
1 Please include 'SRS Germany' in the first or
second line of the address if you want to send
a report to the Eisenach Drop-box !
2 If you do not know how to use the c/o please
do not use it !
SRS Germany
c/o Station ABC
is nonsense !
The correct way for the P:O. Box would be
SRS Germany
- Station ABC -
Postfach 101145
99801 Eisenach
Germany
3 Do not use abbreviations, use the station name.
E.R. can mean Enjoy Radio or Eldorado Radio,
thus I have to open the letter ..
4 If you are not sure about what you heard do
send the report to me personally (or ask at
first via E-mail) or wait for the next log list
and try to find out the station name.
5 Do not send unused stamps unless you are
sure you use the correct currency. I keep
getting reports for Dutch stations with German
stamps as return postage. An address in
Germany does not necessarily mean that its
a German station.
Remark for all those outside the Euro-zone :
A common currency in the region does NOT
mean that stamps can be used in different
Euro countries, too !
6 Remember to enclose return postage.
Several listeners do not include return postage.
Several other listeners include only simply
return postage.
The normal value (in Europe) is 2 times the
postage value for a simple letter (means 2
normal stamps) or 1 USD (Now at the
moment that the USD is falling down this
relation is not valid ..). Do not send IRC's for
reports inside Europe, that is wasting money.
For reports from outside IRC's are a good
thing, old and new IRC's are valid in Germany
as well as in the Netherlands (even if they
sometimes tell something different)
7 Try to avoid sending Euro-Coins as return
postage. Since letters undergo a 'treatment'
in large 'sorting factories' build by the post
these letters that contain sharp things are
often destroyed since letter run between
several rolls that are pressed together .. If
you enclose coins secure them with
tape to a sheet of strong paper.
8 Please include good details in your reports.
I see many reports that consist of details like
'music announcer address'.
If I were the radio station I would not issue a
qsl for these reports.
9 If you do not get an answer from a certain
station please inform me via E- mail. Stations
that do not answer listers letter are not
allowed to use the drop box in Eisenach.

Martin from Eisenach
