[TenTec] Bird Wattmeter Slug Repair

[Donald L. Schliesser]

I have a 250W 2-30 Mhz. slug for my Model 43 Wattmeter that suddenly 
quit working.  Called Bird to see what their policy on repair was.  They 
said to send it in (filled out a repair request on line 
(www.bird-technologies.com) and then they emailed me a Repair order 
number (RMA number).  Sent in the slug at my expense and will have to 
pay return shipping.  They advised me yesterday - a 10 day turn around - 
that a NEW slug will be sent to me and the cost is $ 50.

They will repair or replace any slug, no matter how old - mine was a 
real old one - for a flat fee of $50.  I think that is a great deal, 
especially since new 250H's are going for $155 !

Just thought I would pass this on in case you have any Bird slugs that 
don't work at all, or need repair.
