Which begs a question I've pondered for awhile now ... "Why are they
called 'Pelican' and not 'Elephant' cases?" Pelicans are fairly sturdy
in the temperature department, but not so much if predators are around.
Armadillo's don't survive vehicular traffic well so that might not be
any better than a Pelican, however Tortoises are moderately sturdy ...
and last a LONG time. Cockroach Case might be the mother of all names
for sturdy cases.
Just musings while listening to 6 meters on an 80-10 End-Fed wire strung
on the fence. So far, I've heard DM09. Apparently, notwithstanding the
fact that my K3/KAT3 will match it to 1.1:1 on 6, there are other
parameters that matter too.

If you seal it well, a "zip-lock" bag will protect the radio from

go all the way and get a pelican case.
Wild elephants could trample over a pelican case and it would suffer
no harm. That may be an exaggeration, but they are very sturdy.
