[R-390] R390A Shipping boxes

[Cecil Acuff]

I used Dans boxes as well and after not having two returned after a couple radio sales I contacted him about buying two more. He took my money and about two weeks later I got two crappy Dell computer boxes in the mail. We had words and parted ways. Don’t have a clue where he was getting them but I think it was some outfit out in California.

A good shipping box with die cut foam form fitted inserts would be a great thing to have...

I’m getting to old to hand cut packing material and lug these things to the UPS counter so I’m probably parting mine out here before long.  Pretty much over big heavy radios.
