Re: [Elecraft] Special offer
Hi All, It's a really good deal, particularly when you see that ARRL is selling them for $20 more, and that is supposedly $10 off the regular price. I already ordered (and received) one from Bill Kelsey (Kanga US). It cost a bit more, but the shipping was less, so around the same price--and I got the hardbound version at that price. As soon as I saw the Elecraft offer, I passed in on to a friend (who will soon be a K3 owner). He had seen my copy, and wanted one. I was a little disappointed when he told me what the postage was, but maybe Bill Kelsey ate the processing part. Anyway, it's a really good buy, and the 2010 Handbook is loaded with good stuff. I don't know what's going on with all the deals this year from ARRL on this new version, but clearly this is the year to buy a new edition if you haven't updated recently. Even Dayton prices on new editions haven't been this good! Don't forget that you also get a CD with the entire book contained therein, so you can also have the whole thing at your fingertips when you travel, etc. Dave W7AQK - Original Message - From: r miles greenacres...@charter.net To: elecraft elecraft@mailman.qth.net Sent: Tuesday, November 24, 2009 9:27 PM Subject: [Elecraft] Special offer Just ordered a handbook.

Re: [Elecraft] Special offer
The 999 is an alert to point out you have exceeded the allowable weight for book rate. (It also shows up if you forget to pick a shipping method.) Email sa...@elecraft.com and they will give you the actual shipping cost. 73, Eric Mark n2qt wrote: when I selected 3 or more handbooks with the USPO Book rate shipping the shipping cost went to $999.00!
