Cobra 19 in a 50 cal can, with a 12v 12ah battery. External speakers connected one to the external hookup, one to the PA hookup. K30 mag mount with 15' cable randomly bunched up inside, soit can be stretched out an placed on a sufficient ground plane, or left on the ammo can if necessary. Placing the can directly on the ground helps a lot if a metal surface isn't available. The hole next to the Mic is for a 1/4" headphone jack. The cigarette lighter plug serves as both an aux power outlet for a phone/ipod/whatever charger, and also serves as the charging port for the internal batts.
Its kinda dumb, but it works and makes a decent camp base station, or a loaner cb to put in vehicles that don't have radios, like when we go off-roading.
