Anyone else on panel 846?

I have two designs on panel 846, ordered on May 3rd, 2010. I watched the stats page and saw 840 and maybe 842 shipped on Monday this week, then the next time I checked the page it had shot all the way up to 853 on Tuesday. I never got to see it actually display 846 as having shipped. Now we’re up to panel 859 and rising…

My order page still claims my order is “processing” and hasn’t been shipped. Does that mean panel 846 didn’t ship at all? Or does it just mean my records haven’t been kept up to date? If my panel 846 boards shipped on Tuesday, they might actually arrive in time for the three day weekend, which would be so awesome for me.

This is not a complaint about the service. I just want to hear from anyone on panel 846 regarding whether they got shipment confirmation and/or boards in hand because I’m curious like that.

For anyone curious, the board I’m making is a new revision of my [TRAXMOD Lossless Audio Player. This new board will use the PIC32MX695F512H, which has 128KB of on-chip RAM (yes, 128KB!). I’m hoping to use the new MCP1640 DC/DC converter to power the whole thing off a single NiMH AA battery. My goal is to achieve 5 days worth of playing time on a single charge, so that I can put off re-charging until weekends. It’s going to be so much fun for me when the PCB finally arrives.](http://www.k9spud.com/traxmod/)

Same here. Just realized they jumped from 843 to 859. I am also interested on the status of 846.

My project on panel 834 still says “Processing”, yet I received it last week. This has happened to me before on previous orders. Check your order history for tracking numbers, and use those to see if it shipped. The status updates seem to be behind and I wouldn’t be too surprised to learn that someone has to manually change them.

Awesome, that means there is some hope 846 may have shipped on Tuesday. I only paid for cheap USPS first class mail, so I won’t have a tracking number to watch. But that’s okay.

Received shipment confirmation on my order today… Maybe it didn’t ship on Tuesday after all.

I just got shipping notification of my order from panel 862. That’s an impressive 12-day turnaround.

12 day turn, nice. I think my design took longer because I submitted it on May 3rd. Apparently there is a Chinese holiday right around that time, which probably created a nice big backlog of queued PCB’s. I’m just lucky like that. It’s all good though.

Of course, like an idiot, I waited to order the chips I need and now one of them has a 5-week wait. So I get to sit and stare at my pretty boards…

I got my notification of shipping from panel 854 by BatchPCB on Wednesday afternoon. I was hoping for Saturday delivery so I would not have to wait until Tuesday (no mail Monday). The USPS.com site said "The U.S. Postal Service was electronically notified by the shipper until the wee hours of Friday morning. The boards were delivered with the Friday mail. :slight_smile:

Looks really nice. Soldering surface mount parts is easier than I anticipated. The deal is to use a very small amount of solder paste. I apply it with the tip of a safety pin. This is the first time I have used solder paste. I am slow at this. I use medium tip temperature controlled iron set to 300C when soldering.
