Those folks will inflict serious financial pain.  I went down to my local 
highway department maintenance yard and begged a road sign with a bullet 
hole (or something) in it.  Cut a piece to fit in a wooden frame that my 
window clamps down on.  Drilled the aluminum (quite soft) for bulkhead 
connectors for coax and Jones jacks for rotator cables.  Attached my 
station ground to the plate and voila -- a disconnect panel and entry panel 
in one.
