[Elecraft] K3

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Good advice from Gary. 

The US Postal service strongly advises putting your name, full address, and
phone number inside the box in case of a problem that rendered the address
label unreadable. If it's a double boxed item, I include one inside both the
outer and inner boxes.

Generous bubblewrap in a decently strong box, well taped up, is *probably*
enough by itself Larry, so the extra outer box with peanuts or more
bubblewrap will make sure it's OK, and postal insurance will be sure to be
sure.

Just in case of a disaster in the sorting office that somehow separates
radio from boxes, make sure the radio itself can be traced back to you -
perhaps sellotape your QSL card to the under side?

PS  My Elecraft goodies always arrive in ZL immaculately, boxed and wrapped
and presented.
