Following my recent acquisition of a 7.5” Loopstick Tecsun PL-380 ultimate ultralight dxing radio (with many thanks to Gary DeBock) I thought I should invest in a carry case to protect this.
In the past I have used camera bags and I did also have one of the hard ABS type cases in the past but for this I decided that this type of case would work better. After checking the sizes online and confirming this in store I am very pleased with the size as it allows me to carry:
- Two ultralight radios
- Spare batteries
- Earphones
- A small torch
- My logging sheets on a clipboard and some spare pens

Glad to see you finally upgraded to the aluminium equipment cases whilst looking spiffy/professional your gear is super protected within, the soft/smaller cases you used to use would still be good for "back packing" as fitting that case in a ruck sack would certainly be impractical.
I haven't seen you post in a while, has your site been down recently as well?

Ultralight DXing: New Radio Carry Case
Recently I have been looking for a good carry case for my ultralight radios. In the past I have used a couple of digital camera bags and cases with various levels of success.
After doing some research on a better way to carry these I had settled on a Pelican brand carry case (which was very expensive) until I was browsing at my local super cheap auto store where I came across a new range of cases they are stocking, the case I decided on was this model which is 1/6 the price of the equivalent Pelican brand model.
This cases fits my two ultralight radios, earphones, spare batteries, note pad and some pens.
