Of course Denny! The UPS guys are angry that TenTec had sent something so heavy and they had to lift it so they threw it a time or two before it was loaded on the truck. I know these things go on because I have family who work for UPS. It is not the drivers but the "help" they hire in the warehouse. This is why everytime I ship something I do NOT use UPS but FedEx and it is my experience FedEx is cheaper. At least when gas was over 3 bucks a gallon FedEx did not charge a 10 dollar mandatory gas charge per delivery over and above the normal rate charge.

Yup, good point Charlie... Tubes were OK... What was not was the HV transformer... UPS had managed to crush the box, break the plywood shipping base, and bend the steel mounting foot on one side... To do that would require that it be dropped, or thrown, from chest high onto concrete...
