Excellent idea! I have been buying tactical bags for my ham gear off of Amazon, and most run anywhere from 10 bucks up to 32 dollars. I don't care about tacticool, other than molle is pretty sweet for lashing things together. I have a Goodwill within a mile of my house...may go check it out tomorrow.

I have that backpack from the

Several years ago, someone made waterproofing spray, in a can. It would waterproof any cloth material. Ie. Tents, tarps, cloths & backpacks. It was sold at Lowes Home Improvement. The downside was that it made the cloth stiff and rigid. I know people have used Scotch Guard, for years, to apply a waterproofing layer.

That one bag in the thumbnail looks like one of the range bags on the market. Radios (or other 'range accessories ') line up nicely across the Padded bottom section.

Some of the tackle bags are super helpful for small components. Most aren't terribly affordable but once in awhile you'll find a wicked deal on a waterproof bag with storage for components. 🤙🏽

You can always put small electronics, into waterproof locking lid containers. Used for food storage. Those are much lighter weight and clear. Versus a heavy, Pelican case, which offers padded protection. Even a ziplock bag works to keep stuff dry!

Another great video! Thank you!

Taticool. Love that description. Make sure to get the matching pants, too!

Primary Arms has tactical backpacks on sale, this week! Like $15 - $25.00

I'm a huge fan of the big one compartment (or one big primary compartment) filled with other containers approach. The inner bags or boxes can be specialized so that they meet the needs of their contents and I can mix and match what inner containers I need.

,great video Sean! Nice to see what is working for you! This is one of those things few guys talk about! The quest for the perfect bag is about like looking for the perfect HT. I think I have as many bags as I do HTs 😂

Hey, Sean. Yep. I think this video is going to be extremely helpful to me. Thanks for the work! 73!

I live on Ziplock bags. I always throw a few into the thin laptop pocket or the water bladder pocket. They are also great for compressing a sweatshirt or something in a pinch or putting the radio into to protect it. I am still on the lookout for a bag to do POTA and SOTA. One of the ones I want and would love to see someone do a review on is that Eberlestock backpack for carrying a rifle. I think that would be awesome for carrying my 12m fiberglass pole. You really hit the nail on the head though with it depends on what you want to do with it. I think it is time that a ham KZreadr create the perfect POTA/SOTA bag. Kickstarter? Good video.

A fishing backpack, may be a good choice. They have many compartments for tackle boxes, and tools. They are usually water resistant. But are not cheap.

you should consider the mission darkness backpack too, its completely faradayed and black, perfect for your backup/pota setup for when the SHTF. i got one to keep my electronic backups in, so radios, antennas, laptop, chargers, hacking tools, antenna analyzer, batteries etc. bit pricey but is worth the outlay.

Cool bags, some bags look like tactical. Would be a great protector for radio stuffs. 👍Like that bag on your thumbnail most.

Great tips Dude. 73👍

When walking on a beach, you NEED a GO COOLER! Yes, its the Ham Radio station, built into you favorite Yeti (heavy as Hello Kitty) beach cooler! Plus, a case of beer and ice!

For water protection I use a compactor bag as a bag liner

Ha! I just got a new bag from Goodwill yesterday for my POTA stuff
