    good luck and have a great weekend........

    I agree with Ian! Speaking from my own experience, I ordered 4 cards from Leo's website back in October and about 2 weeks later (live in the US), I got a package in my mail, but it only contained 1 card. I sorta panicked, took a deep breath, and immediately e-mailed Leo to make him aware of the shortage on my order. Granted, it seemed like an eternity in the couple days it took him to e-mail a response back to me after he checked into why I only received 1 of the 4 cards I purchased. After a couple e-mails back and forth he assured me that he would immediately send my my other cards the following day. After another 10 days or so, I received another Royal Air Mail package in my mailbox containing the other 3 cards I purchased along with a hand written note from Leo apologizing for the confusion, inconvenience, and delay in my order fullfillment. Bottom line, in the end, Leo came through in a very professional manner and I would not hesitate for a second recommending purchasing from him. It may just take him a few days to reply to inquiries from you but I can also vouch for him as a straight up guy as well! Hope that helps anyone.

    Re: BU0836X

    While I await the imminent arrival of my card I have a question which will prove how much of a newbie I am.
    I have bought the switches to wire them up to this board but...... wait for it........ what type of wire do I use?
    I have done a quick search to save my blushes but could find no mention of the wire to connect to the board.
    Please be gentle with me as I have had a tough day....
    Thanks

    I assume you've bought the BU0836X card, which has push button connections. Personally I find it better to use a solid core wire for this card, because you need to push the wire into the small receiving socket. It also helps when you want ot route the wire because it stays where you put it.fficeffice" />>>
    I see you're in Wales so a suitable wire can be bought from Maplin, (generally a bit pricey), or I use Rapid Electronics.

    100M REEL BLACK 7/0.2 WIRE RC
    http://www.rapidonline.com/sku/Cable.../62320/01-0400

    This is the wire I use 7/0.2 in 100M reels. this is generally called hookup or equipment wire and I believe Maplin sell a similar product in various colours.

    Hope that helps

    Joe.

    Re: BU0836X

    Just for the record, mine took 34 days, you guys posting from the UK saying shipping is fast is useless to us over the pond! For what it's worth, my Opencockpit order is on day 31 from ship date and still not arrived. Security must be getting real tight.

    Re: BU0836X

    I have had the same problem in reverse ie from the USA, Canada or Hong Kong. Perhaps the answer is to play the respective postal system and not the supplier, unless of course we insist on paying a premium for Fedex or DHL etc.
