fantastic box Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Well, I no longer had the original box for my 756 Pro and found Dave here. Box came in a timely fashion and it is one fantastic item.

Proof is in the pudding Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
After having really bad luck with damages to a Kenwoood TS-940S and a Kenwood TS-950SDX with a a shipper that will remain unnamed I decided to give Ham Radio Boxes a try. Dave custom builds your box for your particular brand and model of radio in a "bullet proof, gorilla proof" box that is just extraordinary! Your rig fits in the box like a glove and has all kinds of foam padding and inlays of foam padding and cardboard that fit perfectly around your radio. I recently sent a Kenwood TS-940S for repair in a Ham Radio Boxes box, and it arrived to the repair shop and back to my home QTH flawlessly, AND the box is reusable! If you love big, old rigs like I do and want to keep them on the air I highly recommend one of Dave Haller's Ham Radio Boxes to ship to your favorite repair shop.

Received and shipped off my FT1000mp Mark V for repair. Received refurbished Rig and the Box did a great job.Would highly recommend and purchase another for my other rigs.Better than the original boxes and inserts.

Great Service for BA owners Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Box arrived via FedEx. Heavy cardboard - Double boxed, well built, sturdy, with foam cut to fit the radio and protect the front panel.

Packed IC-765 and shipped off to ICOM repair in SC via FedEx Ground.

Box returned with IC-765 in perfect condition (inside) and a few bumps and dings outside.

I would recommend Dave's boxes to anyone wanting their radio to survive.

Highly Recommend Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Dave made a custom box for my TS-850 that needed to go out for repair. He stayed in contact via email and when the box arrived the radio fit perfectly in it. I'm confident my radio will survive shipping without damage. I would not hesitate to use Ham Radio Boxes again.

Perfect Fit Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Dave made shipping boxes for several rigs and power supplies for me. He stayed in touch through e-mail and phone. He did not have proper dimensions for some of my older Ten Tec equipment and we worked it out over the phone and by e-mail. This fellow is very thorough ! The cost was most reasonable and I feel as though it is a wise investment on my part. I highly recommend Dave's services. Max WD8DKB

Tough Boxes Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
I have several boxes made by Dave the quality and workmanship is outstanding. I have one box I call the road warrior which was built for my KWM-2A/PM-2 Besides shipping my KWM-2A it has carried a 32S-1 a 75S-1 and lately I used it to ship a very heavy TV-2B/U tube tester to California for refurbishment. All of Dave's boxes have protected my equipment from the gorillas of UPS and FEDEX. Outstanding work Dave. ;-)

Outstanding - Better than Originals By Far Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I have used Dave's custom boxes several times, most recently for a near 100lb Collins 32V-3. These are as close as you can get as sealing inside a solid wood crate... nothing compares. Besides making a great product Dave provides equally outstanding customer service. What a pleasure...

Fantastic Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Very happy with both the quality and speed of service from Dave's company. Packing and shipping 50 pounds of a TS-930 should not be taken lightly, but Dave's custom box fit the rig like a glove. I almost look forward to sending more radios out for repair.

Excellent Box & Materials With Supurb Service Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I recently purchased a shipping box from Dave to house and ship my big, heavy Icom 9000L receiver for repair. I was so impressed with this heavy duty box and the quality foam inserts that hold the receiver in place in the inner box. It was everything I had hoped for and more.

The box was made out of heavy duty cardboard for both the inner and outer box. Custom foam inserts hold the radio firmly in place. But these foam inserts have properly spaced cut-outs for the main knob, rear fan and other small knobs so as not to disturb them or adversely affect them. It is better than the original Icom shipping box which I still have. And it was delivered in a very timely way.
