I recently put an OpenTracker, GPS18LVC, Radio Shack HTX-202 (OK, no longer in production) and a 2.2 Ah 12V SLA battery into a Serpac R-series enclosure (with lock) and so far it's worked well mounted to a seatpost rack. I mounted the GPS inside the Serpac case since I had room and the case is transparent at L-band. To help save power the OpenTracker turns on a transistor which applies power to the radio only when needed.<br><br>You might be able to find an HTX-202 used on ebay in the $50-$70 range and it'll give you 5W (at 12V) vs. the 340 mW of the DJ-S11T, plus the HTX-202 has a BNC connector to make it easier to install a more efficient antenna.<br><br>-Jerome, W0JRT<br><br><b><i>Bill York <iago@pobox.com></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> and not to get too far OT on this, but what about HT rigs for<br>tracking? i'm looking to set up a rig on my mountain bike
and have<br>been looking at the tinytrack3plus/deluo combo. can i hook up a<br>cheapie alinco dj-s11t to that?<br></blockquote><br><p>
