Carrying case for KX3

jstockma
Does anyone have any suggestions for a carrying case for the KX3? In the Dayton YouTube video I see what appears to be a very nice one on the table off to the side. I imagine that a appropriate camera case might work.

Re: Carrying case for KX3

I have been using Pelican cases for my ham gear. I built a travel case for my buddy's KX1 a few years back out of a Pelican 1060. I don't think the KX3 will fit in the 1060 I have, but when the rig gets here I have something to try.

For backpacking I am not sure I will use any other kind of case. Minimum weight is the key and I can wrap the rig with some clothes to protect it = double purpose.

I am looking at a Targus net-book case. It only weighs 14 oz. It has a little extra room for antenna wire, etc. perfect for day hikes anyway.

I have a Pelican 1470 if anyone is interested.  It has some insert that
would probably have to come out and replaced with foam.
