[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 852236, member: 325666"] I spotted a Hughes lower ka band lnb for sale on ebay.. HUGHES LNB. 19.7 TO 20.2 GHz. Part #1500825-0005. Slightly Used Problem .. It was in the USA Nearly £70 to post it here and gawd knows what import duty..on top of the price Then I had an idea . My neighbour is currently in Seattle visiting his brother ..and I had his email address as I'm keeping an eye on his house. Internal postage within the USA was free to the buyer ..so contacted both my neighbour and the vendor ..and explained the logistical nightmare .. The Vendor ..Keith was very very helpful and agreed to allow me to pay for the lnb in full with the UK postage added ...to be refunded immediately on receipt of my neighbours address in Seattle. Job done ..it's on its way now ..and hopefully will arrive in time to be taken on holiday with my neighbour ..as he completes his holiday by visiting friends in Jamaica before returning to the UK. So I'll have to wait a few more weeks but hopefully this well travelled lnb will come home with John ..my neighbour in about a month. Phew..I do have fun dont I lol All that to save £70 plus import duties.. [/QUOTE]
