That must have been a later era of Disto. All the stuff I bought from them
came in white-enameled metal cases, screwed together.
I do remember some flimsy cream-plastic Paks from other makers, though. Does
not instill confidence, and does not with radio interference either.
I have a Word-Pak 80, but forget whether it was Disto or PBJ. Pretty sure
it's in a metal case, though. ISTR the later, Radio Shack Word Pak was plastic.
