Richard,
That delay is stated to "cover all bases" to include weekends.
There are several reasons.
First, there is simply the time to assemble your order and ship it.
Second is the time to process your order and get the paperwork from
sales to shipping.
Thirdly - yes, you order will be run through a final test before shipping.
Other delays may be possible if some part of your order is not currently
in stock, and in that event you will be notified and you will be asked
whether to ship-now, or hold until everything is available.
Shipping time is not included. Normal orders ship UPS Ground, and if
you are not in-state for California, UPS can take another 5-7 days to
arrive. If you are in a hurry, choose USPS Priority Mail and it will
take 2 to 3 days.
73,
Don W3FPR

I ordered my first Elecraft last Thursday, the KX2 Shack in a box. The
website states quite clearly orders will ship in 5-7 days (business days
iirc), so I'm wondering, as I wait less than patiently, what happens during
those 5-7 dyas? Are the radios built to order? Are they built but go
through some testing process before shipping out? I'm figuring there must
be something going on to cause the 5-7 day delay, just wondering what it
is?
