[TowerTalk] Isoloop Packing

[Conrad Nasatka]

Did anyone suggest to try and get a box from the antenna manufacturer?  I
did it with a very good Antenna Matching Company because their boxes were so
sturdy and well packed for double boxing of the tuner.  Maybe they would
sell you one or give you one for free now that you own one of their
products.
