I recently built a portable repeater using one of the aluminum tech tool boxes
you can find at Home depot.I installed 2 Icom ICF-221 S radios,a rig runner
power pole interface and a B D controller with plenty of space in between.
I also installed a 3" muffin fan in the lid and four 2" round soffit vents.The fan draws air into the box from the sides and out the lid.This keeps everything real cool inside.
It was easy to put the holes into the case-a 2" hole saw cut nice clean holes.
The case cost 19.95 at the Depot here in Buffalo-prices may vary where you are.
No room for the power supply however.I have a switching supply or a big gel cell
pack to run it on.
I hope this helps-Good luck!
