I wanted to interject a comment to clarify this a little bit as this will
have some bearing on option 3 upgradees as well.
We are doing these upgrades in the main production area and are subjecting
each one of these rigs to the computerized quality control check that we
do with each new production model. If your radio fails this test for some
reason while it is here with us for the upgrade, we will call you and
describe the problem and give you the option of having the rig shipped
back to you as is, or placing it in the repair queue for service. The
repair time and cost, of course, will be additional to the time and cost
required for the upgrade and presently we are running two to three weeks
turnaround time in the service department.
If you called us to request an option 3 upgrade prior to May 1, we will
have sent you a postcard by now with a number indicating your place in
line. If you called after May 1, we will be sending a postcard out to you
sometime in the next few weeks. We anticipate the vast majority will be
done in July, August, and September. We will call you when we are ready
for your transceiver to be sent to us.
Thanks again !
