I will be back to 'regular' shipping schedule for the next several weeks.
The MOTM-650 panels have arrived, and I will be building several units the
next few days. Shane the tech has freed up time the next 2 weeks, so he will
work on '410s, '830s and '300s. Around Aug 17th all the parts on order to
complete the kits and assembled backlog should arrive. In the meantime we
will build and ship what we can based on what is now in stock. The gating
factors will be the second BTI pot order & the large front panel order. Wire
from the latest vendor will be here on the 10th. I am low on the connector
boards for MOTM-900s but have parts in stock to build 30 more and those get
mailed Monday to the wave solder house.
On the Euro front E340 panels are released Monday for production, I have
started to order parts (mostly metric hardware and mechanical stuff).
I still have ~ 95 assembled modules in the backlog (Ivan S. please check
your VM!) so there is still much work to be done but certainly down from the
~177 I had on June 1. I expect the assembled backlog will be ~ 50 by Sept.
1st, which is a level I have not seen since May of 2003. The kit backlog is
~ 87 total. When all the wire finally gets here, I will start finishing
those up (I have around 50 of them either 100% done or missing the wire
only).
I am aware many people in Europe are on holiday in August. If you have a
pending order and will be gone, PLEASE email me. Before I ship to most
everybody in August, expect a email/phone call from me asking if someone
will be there to get the package.
