Waterproof Boxes

The orange waterproof boxes marine flare kits come in make good boxes too
as they are taller and have o-ring seals on the hinged lid.

You can get them up the road in Searsport, at Hamilton maine, Bruce.

They repack the flares (which come in 5-gal steel buckets) to make up kits
of various sizes, so i know they have the empty boxes there.

 Finding a suitable plastic antenna tuning box is often not easy in local
 rural America.

 I have found that heavy duty black fishing tackle boxes work well.  Many
 are thick walled, and designed to be out in the hot sun on docks, and in
 boats for long periods, year after year.

 They come in various sizes with covers that open for easy mounting of
 components, and tuning.
