Alas, the claims departments at UPS and FedEx are there to make you go away.
They'll stall, lose emails, ask for more documentation, anything to make you
give up and forgo the claim. Ask me how I know. Several years ago I had a
claim with FedEx and short story long I did not get any action until I asked
the office of the president of USAA, for whom FedEx is a preferred supplier,
to get involved. Shortly after that - claim paid in full. Before that - 8
months of back and forth, hoping I would go away.
Moral of the story - be persistent and if you have any sort of heavy
artillery in reserve, you may have to use it.

Another vote against using "The Ooops Store" (UPS Store) and Ooops shipping.
Another member of the list and I have been trying for weeks to collect
damages for packing and shipping another fine piece of TenTec gear that was
mangled upon delivery. I think N5OP's tongue & cheek comment about them
breaking anvils may be true!

Yep, I'd say this is nice package deal with radio, PS and filters.
I view it smart to ship via Fed-X. I had my Eagle recently damaged by UPS
during transit. It was double bubble wrapped and double boxed with foam
between the two boxes. Still took a hit that broke the AF Gain and RF Gain
control.
