Dennis, 
 
It was an unbelievable battle to get those tiny parts located and
ordered. 
 
David, the salesman at the outfit that was sitting on those 27
pieces, 
wanted to get the exact price to sell them by contacting the
manufacturer. 
Apparently, they are manufactured in special lots!&nbsp; He told me that
I would 
have to wait 5 days for pricing ? ? ? ? 
 
I asked him to look at what he was invoiced when his company ordered
the 
parts and to charge me from the invoice, rather than by suggested
retail 
price.&nbsp; At first he was reluctant, but I explained that between the
phone 
bills we (his company and I) were paying we would shortly pay more than
the 
relays were worth worrying about the pennies. 
 
He agreed, checked the records and set his price high enough to make sure
he 
made money and I had the relays.&nbsp; Bottom line, they are being sent
out UPS, 
Air.&nbsp; My rig should be back on all bands with a reliable set of
relays 
within five or six days. 
 
By the way,&nbsp; after calling TenTec four times, I have the dubious
honor of 
having gotten through to their answering machine only 3 of&nbsp; 4 times,
and 
NEVER was answered by a human being.&nbsp; No phone calls were returned
from 
these messages... So much for TenTec's reputed great service! 
 
I have a very slow internet connection, because no hi-speed service
is 
available yet out in the sticks of Yukon.&nbsp; It makes internet
searches very 
slow.&nbsp; I do not think that I would have found that supplier at all
without 
your help. 
 
Your continued friendship has been of immeasurable value. 
 
Thanks seems like too small of a word. 
 
J.
