[Elecraft] Mountain Ops back pack

Sat Mar 8 07:16:01 2003

Kind of the same story here. Took about a month to get my K1 Tac Pack,
but I'll say this, it's well worth the wait! Take a look at my Joshu
Tree web page for some pics at:
http://www.qsl.net/kg6cyn/Joshua%20Tree%202003.htm . My guess is that
they are overwhelmd with orders and it's kind of a 1 or 2 man operation.
I suggested to Teresa (the owner) that she put up and order
pending/shipping page so that you could check on your order. I think
that would be acceptable to most of us. I don't mind having to wait for
something as long as I know that it hasn't been forgotten or that I'm
being scammed. I chatted with Teresa on the phone and she seems like an
honest person. I hope that they continue to offer new products. I don't
think that I could have found a better container for the K1 for portable
operation. Hopefully their shipping and business situation will improve.
Just FYI, the usual no connection to the manufacturer disclaimer
stuff...
