[R-390] Size of CY-929 cabinet?

[Phil Atchley]

Hi.
I'm looking forward to the arrival of my next R-390A on Wednesday.  This
one's coming in a CY-929 cabinet with shock mounts etc.  It will be the
first time I've had such a cabinet.

Question. How much tabletop space is this critter going to consume?  I
presume it'll be a little wider than a "nekid" R-390A. How about depth and
height?  And lastly, how much actual weight does it add to the receiver.
I'm sure that the addition of the case probably brings it up from a
boatanchor suitable for a dingy to one at least suitable for a cruiser and
possibly a destroyer.  Is that the correct naval terms 8^)  I was a "wing
nut" not a "swabby" for 20 years.
