Hi to all.

This is mainly for John, and anyone else who is interested.

I use the large 3 pocket L.L. Bean backpack, and put the radio in the
largest pocket with theMillenium QSYer and the mic.  The Auto Tuner goes in
the middle pocket, and the MFJ supply goes in the outer pocket, and it all
fits.  I also use plastic bags as an extra precaution against scratching,
although putting things in separate pockets reall keeps metal from hitting
metal.  I can also get a straight key in there.

I was pleasantly surprised the first time I tried it to think that I could
carry a fully functional HF 100 watt station around on my back without
causing back injury!  Since the MFJ switching supply doesn't weigh very
much, the overall weight isn't bad at all.  I never weighed it, but for a
45 year old man who is somewhat out of shape, it isn't bad to carry.

73, de Lou K2LKK
