Eagle Creek padded cubes
|
Pete
I'm going to buy an ft-817 in the near future (probably about a week),
and am looking at different carrying arrangements. Saw a reference to the Eagle Creek Protect-It Pouch, which looks pretty good, but Eagle creek also makes several "padded cubes" as packing organizers. Seems like you could put the rig plus accessories in one or more of these, then stick that in a backpack, briefcase, luggage or whatever. Has anyone tried this? 73, Pete, NI9N |

They seem to work pretty well, although the gear needs to packed well inside them, of course. I'm trying to locate a "low-overhead" container for my Sony Picturebook. 73, doug |

Woodrick, Ed
I just picked up some additional Eagle Creek cases yesterday. Their

padded cases seem to be pretty good matches for the FT-817. There's a little extra room around the sides for accessories, but I'll probably just get another one for all of my accessories. The quarter sized case is the one that's slightly bigger than the FT-817. The half sized case is big enough for just about everything that you need, especially the double sided one. Best part is that the cases range from $10 to $20 and seem to be extremely well made and have a lifetime guarantee. Ed -----Original Message-----
