[TowerTalk] Shipping

You can save a considerable amount of money by having large/heavy items 
delivered to the trucking terminal, instead of your home QTH. I recently bought 
a M2 40M4LLDD (16 foot length, 160 pounds). The quote for shipping to my door 
(CA->NM) was $550. Shipment to the trunking terminal in El Paso was $150. Yes, I 
spent another $50 in gas to pick it up. Still worth the savings.
