Luckily I found the Apache 3800 at Harbor Freight Tools for only $29.99 with a coupon ($39.99 without). This case seems sturdy enough. Harbor Freight says it is IP65 Rated meaning it is waterproof and dust proof. It also has the pick-apart foam which makes custom fitting your Go Box much easier. The Apache 3800 measures 16 15/16" Long x 12 7/8" wide x 6 11/16" x high. It has plenty of room for my Yaesu FT-2980.

If you?re planning to use the gear in a pick n pluck foam often, you may want to spay some sort of sealant on it, so the foam doesn?t degrade. An adhesive based spay paint will work well.

Unfortunately, again, Sam NV1P will be unable to run our Wednesday evening 2 Meter FM net at 8:00PM on W1NLK/R. I have once again offered to run this evening's net as alternate net control. Please stop by to chat! We need "critical mass", that is, at least a few participants to make a net session interesting. Please be one of them! The Winter Olympics are over, so no one will be distracted by the excitement of, say, curling (The U.S. men's team won Gold this year!) so perhaps we can get a nice turnout. Every time I tried to watch the Olympics this year, what was mostly shown was curling. It's more fun that watching grass grow (barely...) Chat with you then!
