Going portable remains the hottest ticket in amateur radio today. DX Engineering is committed to making your experience operating from a park, summit, island, or just about anywhere outside of the shack as successful as possible.

You’ll find a massive selection of portable-friendly gear at DXEngineering.com, including complete antenna systems from REZ (available exclusively at DX Engineering), portable antennas from Chameleon, DX Engineering Nomad fiberglass telescopic masts, and just about anything you’ll need short of mosquito repellent and bear spray.

Today we’re featuring a new addition to DX Engineering’s lineup: Portable Go-Bag Mounting Systems from W2HVH Enclosures for popular transceivers.

These enclosures provide a complete transport and operating solution. They keep your transceiver, fused power distribution, antenna feeds, and field accessories neatly integrated into a single, highly compact setup ready for immediate field deployment. The included Go-Bag incorporates a large, zippered storage compartment that offers ample room for cables, batteries, and other essentials.

Choose from these models available at DX Engineering:
