Geoff and group,
    I also have one on order which has yet to arrive.   This time, I forgot
to ask the good people at Elecraft to ship in as small a box as possible.
Sometimes a small parcel coming by post is just passed through without being
charged VAT by our Post Service.   This never happens with any of the other
carriers.   I may call Elecraft later today to request that when they do
ship that they use a small box.   Good luck with the installation.

Hello David,

$69.95 for the board + $40.50 shipping by USPS International (it came in a 
surprisingly large box but very well packed) + VAT on entering UK + (the 
worst part) £13.50 Parcelforce handling charge. It all added up to £92.72. 
It took about 10 days door to door by USPS International. I could have 
chosen USPS Priority Int. for a saving of about $15 but that would have been

of very uncertain duration.

73 and Happy New Year
