[Elecraft] Waterproof SO-239 covers

[Vic Rosenthal]

This is frustrating for those of us who don’t live in the US or Europe. Even before Corona I tried to order some hardware from McMaster-Carr in the US, only to be (somewhat unpleasantly) turned down. The same from other suppliers.
I don’t know what’s the big deal when we pay the postage. I used to send packages around the world when I was in the US, and there was only one simple customs form to fill out.
