This is my first post to the list.

Aren't there mail drops already in operation that do just this? I seem to
recall that the only way to get QSL cards (non-radio folks bear with me)
from pirate SW stations was to go via their mail drops. The section of
Monitoring Times magazine that deals in pirate radio has a list of mail
drops used by the stations (or it used to, anyway). Seems like I saw them in
the classifieds of Rolling Stone or some such place.
