As my radio collection has increased, I have needed to find a suitable way to carry my radios while still providing them with a good level of protection. As I am also taking my "daily carry" kit with me more, I was struggling to keep all of this together and to easily access each radio as needed.

I have recently upgraded my radio kit, selling all my radio gear (both VHF/UHF and also my mediumwave DXing kit) and replacing this with an Icom R6 and an Uniden UBC93XLT (this is on the way to me).

I was recently given an Amazon gift voucher and used this to purchase this for $35 and also some other radio related bits and pieces. I spent some time trying a few different layouts and have settled on this one, it has enough room for two scanners, accessories and aerials. I was planning on having my radios setup the other way with the aerials attached but I found that they were just that little bit too long.

Overall, I am very pleased with how well this case has come out, I am able to carry and store multiple radios, chargers, spare batteries and ear phones, everything I need for portable radio scanning sessions. It is also small enough to fit in my backpack. For $35 it provides a great level of protection. Out of all the cases I have setup over the years, I think this one has worked out the best and has the most "professional" layout and setup I have done.

While this case was designed for my radio scanning / logging needs, the same ideas could be used for amateur radio, radio scanning or any other radio storage need.

Hi, I'm from Queensland and an absolute newbie at scanners and just purchased the UBC125XLT from amazon UK

I see you're from Tassie and wondering if it'll work in Australia being a UK scanner and how good quality is the UBC125XLT?

Appreciate it :)
