Hi Charlie and all,
I have also been doing some research on cases for a slightly different
application and ordered two last might. Here is what I found. It is based
on the need of transporting my K2 equipment in an emergency situation, and
requires a water resistant but not water proof case. I
This is a great thread - I looked at the Pelican cases, and ended up getting
the powerport backpack with the inner box. But I am still looking for a
hard case that will hold the K2/tuner, cables etc. for air travel.
The powerport box is great and while not giving the same protection of the

Originally I had hoped to have thew K2 face out the front,.,,, can't

So, I am looking for Pelican cases
Hi Charlie,
I know you are looking for a Pelican case, but I just thought of something
interesting. A long time ago I won a hard case for a radio control
