Hi Elecrafters,

I just tried the automated TX calibration gain. As explained by Dick, K6KR, on 
the Reflector (Today, 3.21 p.m. EST), the ATU has to be by-passed. During my 
first trial, I didn't do that and got at the second HAM band (3.5 MHz) an error 
message  stating that the SWR was to high (11,2:1) and the calibration failed. 

Other topic.  For the citizens of the European community, there is a new common 
regulation about goods exempted from VAT when imported by passengers: the 
exempted value is now 430 € (instead of 175 €) for those entering the EU by 
plane and 300 € for those entering the EU by car. From Aptos, the plane is 
definitively the right solution ! HAM stuff is always exempted from custom 
duties.

To all Elecrafters merry Xmas and a wonderful new year. Special thanks to Don, 
W3FPR, Tom, N0SS and Ron d'Eau Claire, AC7AC for their fabulous commitment as 
well as to the Elecraft team.
