Portable 50 Watt Dual Band Xceiver for the Ham Radio Operator on the Go

[@Swamp-Fox]

Love that housing configuration for a portable mobile rig that is easy to move between vehicles and can be used as a base as well. Everything you need and nothing you don't. Many "go-boxes" I have seen are heavy and not very portable. The heat shrink over the tab on the mic connector is a great idea. 73, Patrick KF4LMZ

Where does one get this enclosure?

[@RedSummitRF]

I'll ask him and post the information in the description of the video (and here in reply).

@@RedSummitRF very cool stuff!!

[@mikemcdonald5147]

yeah that case is sharp. That makes it much nicer.

[@RedSummitRF]

Regarding the cases, a friend got several of them from his work and gave them away at one a local ham radio gathering a couple years ago. It's unknown if he has anymore. If you want more info I can talk with you offline about it and maybe get you in touch with that person.

My 2016 Chevy Colorado didn’t come with a cigarette lighter

[@RedSummitRF]

Haha I've heard that is true on some newer vehicles.

Looks like that BNC connector could use a little TLC and remove some corrosion...

[@RedSummitRF]

It wasn't a new one for sure, but you have to admire the effort to repurpose and not let things go to waste.

[@USAF-SF]

@@RedSummitRF Absolutely!!! I was in no way denigrating your project, super cool and clean look to solving a problem, I was only suggesting a little Brasso would clean that connection right up... 😎😎😎

[@RedSummitRF]

@@USAF-SF oh gotcha. Very cool. Thanks again
