If it's still possible at this stage in the design process, please consider a "bare" (or minimally enclosed) packaging option for the ATU, which can then be installed in the user's own weatherproof enclosure. Many people may want an outdoor ATU, but the standards of weatherproofing required in different parts of the world vary enormously. Users in wet climates require very high standards of weatherproofing which users in more 'average' climates shouldn't have to pay for. A good example of the "bare" packaging concept is the SGC-239: http://www.sgcworld.com/239ProductPage.html But (contrary to SGC) this is NOT about reducing costs. It's about allowing users to package the unit to meet their own local weatherproofing requirements, which only they can understand fully. -- 73 from Ian GM3SEK http://www.ifwtech.co.uk/g3sek ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
