Don,

USPS Priority Mail is:  $16.98   (this is what is selected)

UPS Ground is:  $19.03

UPS Next Day Air is:  $73.68

I just shipped a few boxes by UPS ground and all of the boxes were bigger and 
heavier than the KX2 Ground Mini Banana Plug and those three shipments were all 
cheaper than the UPS Ground noted above.  Plus two of those UPS shipments to 
Phoenix AZ from my QTH in Kirkland, WA were cheaper than the USPS Priority Mail.

Yes, I will call tomorrow and order via phone.

So far, I am not liking the new web site.

73, phil, K7PEH
