[Elecraft] Expecting a delivery ... but didn't happen

Gene,

     I've had that happen several times at two different locations. And 
once, the package ended up in the bushes. Most of the time the sender 
took care of it, but I had one item they wouldn't but replaced it at 
half cost (Though not  a lot of money ($15), I wasn't happy about it). 
So, I'm always a bit more leery whenever something more valuable is 
shipped. Happily, it's never been something irreplaceable (like an 
antique radio sent in for repair). There are no guarantee's in shipping. 
Even if you hand deliver it! {'-)

     Regards,

     kurtt

I then checked the email tracking at UPS … Well, well, well, guess what? UPS says the package was delivered to my front door at 5:26PM. The problem is that my wife and I were sitting at the supper table at that time. We didn’t hear a UPS truck in the neighborhood all evening.
