RE: Slow turn around time from Uniden
Well after calls(rarely answered), emails and a letter my HomePatrol was finally shipped on 11 Feb after sitting in line since 21 Jan to be shipped. Here is my advice to all that deal with Uniden, Request 3-5 day shipping, pay the extra few dollars. If not Uniden will used Fedex "Smartpost", which is slower than normal ground service( I called Fedex to check on my radio and essentially this is what the agent told me). The other downside to Smartpost is it can be transferred to USPS, which is what happened to my Radio. It has been in Atlanta since 14 Feb. As of 1400hrs on 18 Feb, it is still sitting at Fedex in Atlanta awaiting the Post Office to pick it up to travel the remainder of the 60 miles(it is NOT in the mail system yet). So maybe I will receive it by Saturday.
