[Elecraft] KSYN3A (shipping)

[Doug Turnbull]

Dear OMs,
     I certainly see your point on shipping charges.   However the K3 is not
being made obsolete by a newer radio.    If you have a single receiver the
price is pretty reasonable and if you have two radios what do we expect.
Elecraft makes money and I hope they continue to do so.    

     The demise of R.L Drake was bad enough.    The ham market is not that
lucrative and the likes of Wayne and Eric deserve their rewards.    Then
these gentlemen never present themselves as anything other than brother
hams.  After all we are all members of the Loyal Order of Water Buffalo.

If you are shipping short distances (next state or two), the Regional 
Rate method
is even cheaper. I sent a Medium size box from Tucson to San Diego for 
under $6.

envelopes are good for up to 70 lbs.  Comes with tracking.  The limitation
is size.  The envelopes and small box are under $6.  Where they can be a
real bargain is if you need to mail something to Alaska or Hawaii.  Same
price as across town.
