I see that you're in New York.

Welcome to my pain, if I order anything from the east coast and it 
travels UPS Ground.
Fortunately, I'm two business days away from Elecraft, whether I specify 
UPS or Priority Mail.
The advantage to Priority Mail is that there are Saturday deliveries, at 
least for the time being.

Isn't Amazon Prime great?  After holding out for a long time, I recently 
signed up.
No more waiting until I have $35 worth to order, to get the free 
shipping (and then wait while they take their time to ship).
Case in point:  I ordered four ARRL books on the weekend.  Three are 
here already (arrived yesterday) and the fourth, coming from Delaware, 
should be here today, thanks to UPS Second-Day Air.
ARRL wants an exorbitant amount for shipping; even one book.
