[R-390] 390a shipping methods

[Phil M.]

I use the pink foam from HD and cut it with a box cutter.  I line the top, 
botton,
and sides of the box to strengthen it.  Then I build up insert blocks of 3 
to 4
layers of the foam and use on bottom, front, back, sides, and top.  I've 
just
shipped two R-390's this way in the last month with no problems.

73, Phil
