The resistor is Ameritron part 107-4500 $2.40 The Cap is Ameritron part 270-6210-7 $13.53 From MFJ. I assume they can be found cheaper elsewhere. W0MU* * _____________________________________________

Hi Barry - In my limited experience, DHL is horrifically expensive to your part of the world - I once tried to arrange return of a 2-pound QS1R from Namiibia for repairs, and was told DHL would be se

There may be much cheaper alternatives for shipping. I've sent packages to Costa Rica thru a shipping service based in Florida - it was MUCH cheaper than using FedEx or UPS. _________________________
