[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1048817, member: 3828"] The zip-lock baggie has been my RD weather protection in the past, somewhat un-succcessfully at times, at which time I would employ Bounce's technique. I've actually had it get wet enough inside the ziplock to start giving continuous false alarms (until it dried out). So, I am trying something new this year, if spring ever comes to New England. I've mounted my RAM Power Plate (really just a magnetic RD mounting cradle) on the top of my semi-rigid Bags Connection tang bag, inside of which is my starcom1 intercom and a power source. This cuts down dramatically on the amount of wires flapping around in the breeze, and will allow me to just throw a rain cover over the whole shebang in the rain and not have to worry about the RD separately. The RD will actually sit inside of a small cordura zippered pouch so that it isn't quite so obvious that it is a radar detector, but could be just as easily left out in the open.
