Eric,  Thank you for the response.  I was looking at the issue of going an 
additional direction when it arrives.  I understand the packaging and was more 
interested in if it could be shipped in two cartons and you have clearly 
answered that.  Others have "delicately" pointed out all the possibilities 
including a reference to me being a man.  That one really was silly.   I can 
manage.  I only asked for a simple answer and you gave it straightforward.  I 
will probably order within the next week or so as I am creating the funds as I 
type.

72 & 73,
Bill

Hi Bill,

We ship the RF deck and Power Supply in two individual inner boxes that are 
then packed with special foam corner inserts into a larger outside shipping 
box. The foam inserts, air gap and the outer box provide the extra protection 
needed for shipping via UPS etc. We lose that protection if we ship it using 
just the two inner boxes on their own.

The easiest thing I would suggest is to simply open the top of the outer box 
upon receipt and then easily remove the lighter two inner boxes separately to 
move it. They lift out very easily.

Regards,

Eric
