[TowerTalk] Waterproof enclosures at base of tower

[John Hudson]

As most hams, I'm always looking for something that I really NEED but at 
a cheap price and following some of the posts about waterproof 
enclosures got me to look around at some of the commercial links and I 
happen to have a great enclosure that I got free but as I took something 
out truck that my dad gave me yesterday it looked like I could use it also

What do you guys think about the use of a military surplus ammo boxes? 
The one I have is 5 1/2"wide x 11" long and 7" deep and thats a small 
ammo box. I've seen more useful size boxes and there are plenty of 
surplus places across the US. Very secure lids with waterproof seals and 
plenty heavy gauge metal. Mounting them would not be hard. I just opened 
mine and the lid comes completely off if I wanted to have full access to it.

Something to think about, maybe already been done
