Sorry I should have been a little more specific. I have some travelling coming up and am trying to come up with a combination of equipment that will fit in a Pelican 1490 case that should be able to go through airport security with a minimum of hassle.

Would a larger briefcase/toolbox help? A metallic tool box may be what you need to mount it all to and serve as its transport, also.

Just a thought.

I am trying to come up with a portable sat station that can fit in a briefcase. I have the dipole and reflector antenna that K5GNA sells for his downconverter but I am looking for something compact that can fit in the briefcase and the reflector cant. I have thought about the G3RUH patch antenna but that is a little pricey for me at this point. Are there any other antennas that someone can suggest that I try for this quest ?
