[Elecraft] [FS] PX3

[Rick Bates (WA6NHC)]

And if large/heavy enough, transport to HI is via shipping (actual ships); which bundle loads for efficiency and the arrival time can often be measured in weeks (and still not cheap); a place where no overnight UPS/USPS service exists to/from the mainland.

UPS/Fedex are typically twice as expensive for the same package, so if it fits a flat-rate box its much cheaper.  All my mail is sent to the PO where I have a PO Box (no home delivery) so much more secure than UPS/FedEx that drop the box on my front porch and scoot.  Unless I order signature required.
