Where is the real time GPS tracking when we need it???

It would be like the kids watching the NORAD 'Santa Tracker' on Christmas eve.

Funny how complete strangers on teh intarwebs would be excited to see YOUR scope arrive.  At least you have tracking info.  My scope arrived about 4 weeks before they said they'd even ship it!  Good thing we were home - my wife saw it sitting on the front porch when she stepped out the front door.  Nobody heard the door.  Mixed feelings very quickly gave way to just excitement.

Cheers.

Awesome

Well, in my case I would be glad to see Carlos face when the scope arrives and he is unboxing it. :-)
I do really like watching people doing things which they makes them happy and I think when Carlos
is getting his scope this could be one of such moments.
Hopefully, there will be a video or something from this event. :-D

Carlos: all the best for you and your new scope from my side. :-)

A video is planned for sure. Should be fun!

I pity anybody driving past in a van ... I can see someone jumping the fence to flag them down - in case they missed the house.  I can also see a lot of potential vehicle photographs.

I get the feeling the anticipation is akin to a 6 year-old on Christmas Eve........

Did they ship it via snail, has it still not arrived?

[rx8pilot]

I don't have any specific information. It is possible the boat ran out of fuel in the Pacific Ocean causing a small delay?

Clearly it must have. Being I didn't win a scope I broke down and bought one from the Keysight ebay store. I was able to tell which Fedex planes it was on as it traveled from Malaysia to BC, Canada.

They are waiting for a customer to sent a scope RMA, so they can give it to rx8pilot, but till now the customers were to happy to return them, so they are still waiting 

[continuo]

They probably tied it to a bunch of party balloons for delivery, but unfortunately it floated into North Dakota and NORAD shot it down...

[steverino]

OK.  I know what's causing the delay...

You didn't pay for the shipping!

 (I only now watched your contest video, which ends with the scrolling text "I WILL ALSO PAY FOR THE SHIPPING".)

[Towger]

Free China postage.  May arrive after 30-40 days.

I have a sweet FedEx # and I'm not afraid to use it......

[Brumby]

Lock 'n' load!

[DimitriP]

Still no ETA? 

[rx8pilot]

Still no ETA?

Not yet. I don't want to bug anyone over there, but it's tough being on the edge of my seat. Last I heard was that it was making it's way from factory to Colorado.

Maybe Daniel is hand delivering it and decided to walk it over.

hmm, what happened to the Fedex tracking #, is it not showing in the system yet?

If Daniel shows up, we can go have a nice dinner in Los Angeles. Not a problem.

I don't have a tracking #. My guess is that this is such an odd ball thing that it is under the daily routine radar.

He will get it next week (3 weeks shipping time from Malaysia, incl. all the customs stuff)

Once shipped I am sure he will get it within 48 hours. My scope was shipped from Malaysia on a Friday and I received it on Monday. Customs/taxes is prehandled by Keysight so it should just cruise right to his door.

Based on my last email - it is going direct to the Colorado office and then will be shipped domestic to me in Los Angeles. I doubt the shipping logistics are the challenge, but more of an internal challenge dealing with something that no one has dealt with before - giving away stuff.
