just for the record i have just ordered a luksander 216 quickfold aerial from them in usa and the cost was including delivery and a new case £143.36.
just in case anyone was thinking about getting one. can't wait to get it and get it going as anyone will know if you go out regular its a pain in the arse with those butterfly type screws.

Moses,
This is just for an upgraded aerial (yaggi) it is not a complete telemetry system. Not sure you can be this floding aerial in the UK.

I just bought the new spring Yaggi and a new bag and 8 high drain batteries for my system and also got my serial number registered with them and they are sending some new bits for the MN10 I have :) If you want to look at their website and get a closer look at the new equipment ...then go to my links page on my website.... you can buy direct from them ....much cheaper than buying their kit in this country :)

BTW ...thanks "Ste2106" for all the info :)

just to let you all know i received my new aerial two days ago. customs whacked me for an extra 24 quid but apparently if it had been marked "service repair" i would have got away with it. £143 for the aerial (100 dollars of which was for shipping and handling) oterwise would have been a good deal.

How long was the wait from ordering the ariel to your doorstep?

BTW Always get stuff marked as "repair" or "Gift" or "Samples" from USA if you can :)

you dont want it marked samples griff, it'll be hanging around in customs apparently for ages, repaired under warranty is what you want. thats if theyre prepared to do that i know luks did with me

I had that customs problem with energiser batteries from the USA, they were marked as $1 and customs reconed that was each one not the lot. So they wanted £25+ for customs on 100 batteries. I am afraid they went straight back!!!
