[Elecraft] Shipping Rates

[FredJensen]

Actually, I believe the limit is 70 lbs.  I think you have to use their 
Flat Rate boxes [they're free and they have several sizes and shapes 
with different postage costs], and I think part of the reason for the 
limit is the strength of the boxes.  Their slogan is, "If it fits, it 
ships," which may not be exactly totally true :-)  We use them to send 
care packages to the US troops we adopt and they work great.
