You can stow up to 555 pounds of
MSE transit equipment on the PU-751
5-KW generator without damaging the
trailer. The PU-753 10-KW generator
can handle only 160 pounds.
Once you reach the limit, all other
gear must go elsewhere. Generally,
limit gear packed on a trailer to:
•
Shelter’s COEI/BII
•
Two 15-meter antennas or
two 9-meter antennas
•
Any necessary cables

commo shelter

challenge.
Here are some of the
common
packing problems
and how to
overcome them…
