[Elecraft] Price Increase Alert (Now Feb 8th)

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

In response to numerous requests from customers this week for a little more time to beat the scheduled price changes with their orders, we have moved the date for the changes a few days later to this Monday, Feb 8th.

This should give those who missed the original announcement and everyone else through this weekend time to to place their orders.  :-)

(See below for details of the original announcement.)

73,

Eric

We've been absorbing all of these increases, but now we have hit the point where we  must increase prices slightly on a number of our products.
