Having dealt with IRCs recently, here's the latest cr@#p.
1. All USA IRCs (no matter when purchased) are deemed to have expired
in 2013, no matter
the date "Good thru" is shown.
2. Only newer IRC's (from other countries) with the cupped hand and
water (about 3.5 x
6 in) are valid ... and only until mid-2017.
3. The USA will only honor certain (unstated) IRCs from other
countries, even if the
type is #2 above, from certain/limited countries and NONE after 2017.
4. Some IRCs are not honored in other countries at all and others not
at face value, but
some discounted value.
5. ITU has a list of countries selling/accepting IRCs; however, the
list is disavowed in
certain (unknown and unstated) countries.
So, good luck with buying/selling/using IRCs anywhere -and- soon nowhere, eh?

Quoting Richard Knox via TenTec <tentec@contesting.com>:
TenTec Fans,
Over the years I have made numerous overseas contacts with my
various TenTec rigs: Century 21; Century 22; Corsair II and Omni
VI+. However my stash of IRCs is rapidly diminishing.
So recently I went to the Post Office to purchase some more IRCs. I
was surprised that the USPS no longer provides these. And hasn't
for several years.
If anyone on the list has any IRCs they would be willing to sell me,
please contact me off the list.
My contact info is KnoxCOLatAOL.com
I hope everyone is having a most Merry Christmas Season and Happy Holidays!
73! de KD4BRL Dick
