Re: [Elecraft] Transport Case for K3 - for UK?
Yes, I use one of those it the K3 might get some rough treatment - like going to scout camp. I paid the same price at the beginning of the year - it's always that price :-) 73 de M0XDF, K3 #174 -- The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made. -Groucho Marx On 12 Dec 2008, at 08:37, GW0ETF wrote: Yesterday I bought a 'Flight Case' from Maplin here in the UK - it is p/n N70AP. I haven't yet cut the foam to fit but even without the foam in place the K3 barely moves around as it is gripped lightly between the foam in the lid and the bottom of the case which is covered in a thin layer of high density foam.

I was pleasantly surprised by the quality; seems strong enough, is lockable and is well padded inside even without the foam block. Best bit is the price - £14.99 though apparently this is 50% off til Xmas eve.

If Elecraft moved over here, it would be win-win :) If anyone wants a Pelican case in the UK, I recently ordered from http://www.waterproof-cases.co.uk/ and was happy with their service. 35% off and free postage. Mine was dispatched the day I placed my order.
