Weight of 680x

You likely mean 680x, it is not 36-680.

I shipped a 37-116 internationally and it is a fairly good approximation.

My fully packed cabinet sans chassis, but with all speaker/clarifier stuff, plus dial assembly and tall tubes came to 108 lbs.

The chassis when packed properly was 52 lbs (bolted to plywood etc).

It shipped overseas by sea freight, came without any hiccup.

Yes 680x, I'm new to Philcos. Is the chassis securely bolted down to the cabinet in that radio? In other words is it necessary to ship the chassis separate from the cabinet? It will be a domestic shipment by Plycon who have done a good job so far. They wrap them in a blanket and keep them upright for the whole trip by truck. Sorry for all the questions but I want this to arrive safe and sound and I'm not sure how the chassis is attached to the cabinet.
