FRANCE Note on Radio France Int'l mailing address.
Recently I sent a reception report to Radio France Internat. at two
separate addresses, both of which were listed as addresses for RRs and
verifications in the last edition of Passport to WBR (2009):
Radio France International
English Service
B.P. 9516
F-75016 Paris Cedex 16
France
...and...
TeleDiffusion de France
Direction de la Production et des Methodes
Service Ondes Courtes
10 Rue d'Oradour sur Glane
75732 Paris Cedex 15
France
The first address snagged me a response with a verification letter a
couple of months ago (of sorts - very boilerplate). Today I just received
my original *unopened* envelope from the second address with an affixed
stamp that is checked "Refused" on it - so I assume that the second
address either does not currently exist, or does not currently even want
mail (at least from outside France).

Hi Bruce,
I guess TDF has moved a couple of years ago, so use this address instead:
TeleDiffusion de France
