[Elecraft] [OT] Hilberling PT-8000 cancelled.

[Brett Howard]

I'm glad to hear some people who understand this!!!

I work in a company where we make bar code scanners which have scales in
them.  Releasing an electronic device world wide is hard enough but
dealing with weights and measures in all of these countries is a whole
different issue.

We're recently getting into becoming our own calibrating body.  When we
ship a scale now we're actually going to have to be able to calibrate
for the offset in gravity from where it was calibrated to where its
installed.
