I have a Harris RF-590 receiver and last summer I had sent it to Harris for 
service. I had to wait several months to get it back and when I asked them why 
it was taking so long they told me they were swamped with repairs for radios 
the military was using over in Iraq. I certainly don't mind waiting in line for 
them to repair the radios our boys are using in Iraq. It hit home that we are 
difinitely in a war footing  with the insurgents in Iraq and those Harris 
radios are probably saving lives over there! 73 Todd WD4NGG
