Shipping and Handling
Service Alerts. Weather, natural disasters and other uncontrollable events can interrupt deliveries. See FedEx Service Alerts for known, possible delivery interruptions.

Sales Tax
US and Territories
Items sold by ARRL and shipped to locations in the US, including territories may be subject to sales tax*. The tax rate applied to your order will be the combined state and local rates of the address where your order is delivered to. For example, if you live in a state that does not impose a sales tax, you may still see tax calculated on your order if shipped to another state.
* In June of 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling that states can require internet retailers to collect sales taxes.
Canada
Add 5% GST (excluding S/H).
