   the QSL bureau can be very slow as can some stations before they reply.  I   
   routinely   
   receive bureaucards which have been travelling up to 4 years but sometimes   
   roundtrip takes   
   only a few weeks.  It depens wethere the bureau uses burro service or not.  Be   
   patient and   
   carefull what you write, your card may not arrive for another few years.    
   Longest a card   
   for me took is 25 (twentyfive) years and looking at the writing and   
   discoloring it was   
   written 25yrs ago.
