[Elecraft] [KX3] KX2 Travel Case for Portable Operation

[Walter Underwood]

As a lightweight backpacking case, I’m considering the Peak Design Field Pouch ($40). It doesn’t have a lot of padding, but it only weighs 5.4 ounces.

My other idea is to tape together a bubble wrap or Reflectix pouch and put that in an Ultra-sil dry bag.
