[ICOM] WTB: 706 box or packing materials

[Jerry Flanders]

John, if you are mostly interested in protecting it during shipments, 
consider making your own inserts with "Great Stuff" foam insulation. It 
comes in a can at your local hardware store. You would wrap the radio in 
plastic and foam around it. I have never done it, but have seen the results 
in shipments I have received. Looked secure to me.
