Welcome to the Forum Little !I used & old Plano Box Rack that held 4 box's ( trays ) , w/ box's removed , I installed my Old Cobra 140GTL , 250 King Bee Amp , Meter , Hand held Scanner ( slid on the side ) Old RS Spkr mounted on top , plus room to keep a Stock Mic in case I need it . I like it , it has a handle , easy to carry in/out w/ Anderson Connectors . But just recently had to reinforce it to make up for the cutting I did on it . Just a thought , worked for me . Stay Healthy & Safe ! 73 & God Bless ! Leo
Below -20C the battery goes into a pocket when using.
Simple MC4 panel mounts (for solar panel). 20ah battery inside, 10amp solar controller, and I used a 3 pin aviation plug setup to prevent polarity error. Here it's shown with simple 110v 190w inverter you run a small fan when power went out. Again never used a panel with it yet but a 50w-75w would be overkill to charge the 20ah battery.
I was wrong earlier. Just a plain poly 50 cal can (not FAT50)

If you could post some pictures of your new setup, that would be great. I am going to put a can together to take on beach trips. I have a Midland GMRS mobile and an Anytone Smart that I plan to stick in it. Might make a good command center for the golf cart too. Haha!Thanks Bud! I have a new version of that as well

im kinda thinking of doing the same. What antenna would you use for such a portable system?

Solar activity during the past 24 hours was at moderate levels with a few low level M-Flares detected around AR 3311. The active region, now directly facing our planet, will remain a threat for additional M-Flares during the next 24 hours.A new sunspot region located in the southeast quadrant was numbered 3315 on Tuesday. During the past 12 hours, rapid spot growth was observed and is now likely capable of producing minor C-Flares. This region will be monitored for further development. |
