Due to various government regulations some items on this website are available for export only. If the word "export" appears in the product description, then that product is not available to residents of the US or its territories. Call for more information.
Most items do not require special export licensing to most of the free world, however, the sole responsibility for compliance with any regulations, import duties and/or taxes in any way relating to the entry of such goods into the importing country shall be that of the buyer.
Many new LPFM stations that have received their CP (Construction permit) from the FCC are in the process of raising funds to pay for their equipment. Progressive's new Layaway Program allows those and any customers to make monthly payments on the equipment they need so that they don't have to make the entire purchase in one full payment.
In short, our Layaway Program requires 20% of the Grand Total on your invoice as the down payment. We require one monthly payment, or more, of the amount you indicate on the Layaway Agreement, which you fill out, sign and send back before we start your layaway.
If you have any questions feel free to contact us for additional information.
