Hello,

Finished the first try at making a light weight weather proof enclosure for the BL2 portable use.  Now I started looking at web offerings and was not pleased.  So, I went to the hardware store and bought a 3x outlet black plastic enclosure, ugly but was a start.  If you band saw all of the unnecessary flanges etc, you end up with a box that will house the BL2.  It is a little wide and that is an effort to work on later.  Cut a front and back panel and install the antenna feed throughs and a hole in the bottom for the BNC and you have a 13.5 ounce package.  I can't get into the Yahoo group site to post pictures, but can send picture direct for those interested.  Cheers,

Mel, K6KBE
