I am resenting this, as the original has not appeared.<br/><br/>I am also awaiting delivery, I expect the usual nonsense with Parcelforce who handle the UK delivery, where they pay any duties and VAT and then send a letter to me asking for payment of those charges and their handing fee on top of that, before they arrange to deliver the item to me. This happened recently to me when I ordered a used xtal filter from the US and I had to pay about £34 before I got the item. It is the extra delay that especially annoys me, in this day and age to write a letter and post it to me to tell me what the charges are is ridiculous.<br/><br/>Oddly when I order from the East, the item just drops through my letterbox. I ordered an FG01 antenna analyser on Saturday evening and it was on my doorstep on Tuesday morning - all the way from China.<br/><br/>Still waiting patiently for my KX3 which I ordered from our local and only ham store in GM last week, latest is that it will be here tomorrow. The big show down South has delayed things apparently. I could have ordered it directly from the USA saving a few hundred quid, but I couldn't be bothered dealing with Parcelforce, besides I get a 2 year warranty from the UK supplier. <br/><br/>73<br/><br/>David Anderson GM4JJJ<br/><br/><br/><br/> ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected]
