When shipping in parts (Radios) for Programming...

Just some helpful tips:

1. Send the whole radio silver box IE don't unscrew the front metal panel with the part number on it. Not sure why just got one in that way that panel is used to align the faceplate for functionality checks post programming.

2. Don't use packing peanuts; EVER. They get everywhere including the laser area for the CD player plus it takes even more time to box the units back up, clean them etc.

3. Don't EVER use USPS; these guys lose and screw stuff up constantly; pay the extra and get it done right :)

Thanks guys!

Bump, just got a radio from USPS that looks like it went through the war... again please do NOT use USPS and for God's sake just don't toss it in box without packing; these are electronics!! :)

Bump for yet another radio arriving with horrific packaging.
