[Elecraft] Wow, Elecraft charges a lot for shipping!

[Lynn W. Taylor, WB6UUT]

Definitely not "just as easy" if the field is supposed to be a number.

The right way to code this is to eliminate First Class Mail as an option 
when the weight goes over 14 oz.

Whoever wrote the shopping cart on the web site didn't really anticipate 
some of the very light items that Elecraft sells.  If they don't have 
source code (likely) then fixing it could be difficult.

I know, I ran a hosting company and did sites for 25 years.

That said, it seems IOTTMCO that if the shipping charge is $999, one 
should explore other options.
