Re: [Elecraft] RemoteRig distributors in USA?
Hi Bill,I have a Remote Rig RRC-1258MkIIs for Elecraft K3 Twin setup that I purchased a little while back for a project that never got off the ground. Everything still new in the box including the Elecraft accessory cable kit. Had planned on listing it but saw your post here. Shoot me an email if your still interested.Kirb - VE6IV - Original Message - From: Bill Coleman To: Elecraft Sent: Mon, 21 Feb 2022 12:31:27 -0700 (MST) Subject: [Elecraft] RemoteRig distributors in USA? I recently obtained a second K3 and now I’m curious about remote operating my home station K3. The RemoteRig RRC-1258MkII seems like a good solution, but I’m having trouble finding anyone who carries it in the USA. Elecraft used to sell, as well as HRO, but neither list this product. Suggestions?

Re: [Elecraft] Import duties on amateur radio items
I would suggest contacting U.S. Customs and getting the correct tarrif number. Amateur gear, particularly U.S. manufactured goods is 100% duty free under NAFTA (inbound to Canada).

Since the K2 originally came (as a kit, at least) from the U.S. there may be an exception, but getting it may be another matter. Bob, N7XY On Apr 8, 2008, at 2:55 PM, Jim Miller wrote: Duty free??

Re: [Elecraft] Morse on the Tonight Show, Tonight, Friday the 13th
Its unfortunate they had to be costumed up as 140 year old telegraphers. It may have been cute however it doesn't do our image much good. Some would say that any publicity is good publicity but I'm not so sure in this case. But hey, more importantly, we're those FT-817's by any chance? Likely just coincidence no doubt. Fortunately, at that distance you wouldn't require a PA. Gregg, VE4NU --- ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Re: [Elecraft] Trip to Canada
Actually.. you will have an issue. K2 is an official registered brand used on cattle from a particular ranch here in AB. It is registered with US customs at all border crossings. If the radio is less than 32 months old you might get it back in, but theres really no guarantee.

Taking it back into the US is up to US Customs! :-) I don't know how the US handles this; in Camada, I can take items to Canada Customs and they will give me a green card listing the items and their serial numbers. When I return to Canada, that is my proof that I did not buy the item on my trip to the US, so I won't get charged taxes at the border. BTW, you can operate in Canada. As an Extra class, you will have full privileges in Canada. Just sign as W1CG/VE3 (for Ontario), which you would pronounce on voice as W1CG mobile VE3, or W1CG portable VE3 if you set the rig up out of the car. -- ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
