(with shipping) I gave up on the ugly web site before I found the price. I'm a bit surprised they don't have a US reseller --- The unit costs $85 with $25 shipping to anywhere outside of Australia. These are Australian $ and a quick check online converts that to approx 93USD total. At the moment the exchange rate probably makes it an even better buy from the UK. The web site does seem a bit messy at first but easy enough once you get used to it. There's a separate side tab for orders which takes you into page 1 with a link into page 2, the USB-GPIB unit is near the bottom of page 2. Some of their other stuff looks good too. regards Nigel GM8PZR ___ time-nuts mailing list time-nuts@febo.com https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts
