   Use a QSL Bureau.   
      
   There is also EQSL, which some people like.   
      
   Some people use Post Office Boxes.   
      
   Some have personal QSL managers who receive cards etc for them.   
      
   In the UK, not being listed in the Callbook is far from uncommon. Unlike   
   in the USA, our equivalent of the FCC don't have a public database of   
   callsign data and you can opt to be with held from the one which is   
   released to those who request a copy (eg to publish the 'Callbook').
