[ICOM] PW1 boxes and packing materials

[Dr. Howard S. White]

I always keep all my original ham gear boxes...

I find that it significantly increases the resale value when you have
everything - boxes, packaging, manuals, cables, fuses, etc....seems to imply
to the buyer that you took good care of the gear while you had it...
