plastic material for rover pouch
Posted by [email protected] on December 4, 2018 at 11:07 pmDoes anyone know where to purchase the clear, pliable plastic material that is used in pouches that hold the rover receiver to the pole.

Ummmm … I have never used any sort of clear plastic material to attach my rover receiver to the pole. I’ve always used aluminum, usually in the form of a 5/8″ x 20 threaded rod. So I’m not at all clear (pun intended) on what you are asking.
You’re response to me sounds like the antennae not what I call the receiver.
Have taken a photo and have tried to attach but it’s apparently the wrong file type.
So back to basics what type of file do I need to save the photo as. Currently it’s html.
If you’re speaking of shielding the data collector from the rain, I use a gallon size zip-lock bag. Once the rain accumulates on the plastic it gets too difficult to read though. That would probably happen with any form of plastic, at least the types that are pliable enough to work the touch screen.
This is what I came up with to attach radios to the prism/GPS pole for a hands free experience and for the least experienced hand to keep up with his radio.
I found out about this by someone mentioning them to keep their repeater and phones connected and out of the weather.
Mine is turned upside down with the antenna passing thru the cable connection that can be at the bottom and it fist securely to tripod legs, pole, handle bars and steering wheel or SxS roof roof support.
Lookeup at the top right hand corner of this page forthe magnifing glass symbol and do search for your topic.
In the last years discussion, there were many different type of protective case used in the field for tablets, laptops and other equipment.
good luck
Thank you. We are close. It’s not the entire pouch I’m looking for, just the plastic material used in the pouch. In other words I’m trying
to repair my existing pouch and replace just the plastic portion.

Google “clear plastic sheeting”
Seek High Clear Silicone Rubber sheets
Google “hiking map cover” or “bicycling map cover” or “kayaking map case”
Lots of good stuff.

Go to your local Wally World and look for vinyl sheeting in the fabric department. It comes in a variety of thicknesses
and you by it by the yard (or portion thereof). Last time I bought some it cost @ $6 a yard.
Many fabric stores also carry vinyl sheeting.
