[EIDXA] 7O6T OQSL

[Joe Hungate - K8OM]

I was very careful to make sure I hit "direct" and not "Bureau" but since 
I'm a card carrying member of DAM (Mothers Against Dyslexia) anything is 
possible!

Maybe there is some "feature" about using PayPal when you link your account 
directly to your bank debit card instead of having money sitting in your 
PayPal account that I don't know about (?).

Thanks,

Joe - K8OM

Are you certain you didn't choose buro and then add a donation?  Mine 
showed:

$5.00 USD 1 $5.00 USD
Donation
$0.00 USD 1 $0.00 USD
Subtotal $5.00 USD
Total $5.00 USD
Payment $5.00 USD
