DX-60A

[Don Cunningham]

Amen to the thread that is getting started.  We are quick to condemn the
shipping companies for these "damages", but slow to blame the shipper!!  I
have YET to receive any used gear shipped actually as it should be and often
marvel that it gets here at all.  Someone on one of the the lists suggested
using builder's foam to secure boatanchors in one box, then double boxing.
I have been doing that for several months and having great success with it.
Sure it costs a bit more, but we aren't making any more of these!!  Not
worth much, but my $.02 anyway, hi.
