[Amps] Experiences shipping a Commander II with the XFMR installed

[Mike & Becca Krzystyniak]

Greetings All,

     I'm am going to ship a Commander-II VHF amp and was wondering how
critical it is to remove the XFMR and ship it separately?  It seems a
schoesch more XFMR than a SB-200 and I shipped this before without issue.  I
realize there are always risks of getting the Gorilla handler from Hades.

     Any thoughts or experiences here?

     Thanks in advance.
