Description: This sale is for a scarce Drake SW8 carry tote. This sale does NOT include the SW8 receiver which is shown inside the bag only for visual reference. We had one of these bags years ago for our personal SW8 radio and had no idea how scarce it would one day become and had sold the bag long ago. From time to time someone will inquire about this tote and we have had difficulty obtaining another to offer for sale. In our 18+ years of selling receivers on Ebay, we average having one of these totes for sale about once every 2 years and it is a scarce accessory item. Since the SW8 receiver is portable and it is likely to be carried from home to work to cabin to DXpedition, etc, RL Drake offered a padded carry tote with web strap handle to offer protection in transit, and by virtue of the web handle, make carrying the SW8 easier. As you can see, the tote bag is in customary Drake blue color of Cordura nylon and has the Drake insignia on the front lower left. Theoretically you can either use the web strap for carrying the receiver, or if extended, placing the strap over the shoulder. However, some users will find it just as easy to grab the handle on the SW8 receiver for carrying and allow the padded carry tote to protect their SW8 from bumps and bruises. This tote has a practical application, but has also been favored by collectors of RL Drake equipment who may want it to enhance their SW8 receiver. Cosmetically, the bag appears to be in excellent condition and signs of age and use are minor. It comes with a sheet of paper from RL Drake advertising the availability of the bag.
