Tolo[TK] Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 (edited) Hello Troops, I'm trying to refit everything in my bucket. I got Echo's fan system, which solved my fan problem A-1. But now, I need to fix my second problem. My Memorex transceiver. I got it and never really installed it in my bucket, I can't find a place to put it. I had it in my eFX bucket, there is a lot of space in it, but, I never used it, I decided to go the AP way instead. Any of you have suggestions for me? Thanks, Eric Edited December 20, 2013 by Tolo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK bondservnt[501st] Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 you can shrink it down by making another enclosure? and mount the new package at the rear inside the lower tube section? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tolo[TK] Posted December 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 Hey, that's not a bad idea Vern, thanks!!!I just need to find what to put it in. Maybe a experiment box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK bondservnt[501st] Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 i suggest an RF shield bag with a soft cover. this way it will be shielded against 2 things. first the RF shield bag on the inside keeps the electronics shielded from outside magnetic or power sources second the soft cover keeps the components from having no padding. leads from the "bag" could be heatshrunk allowing the bag to be replaced if needed. installed with velcro for easy removal.

Would it have a chance to create heat and damage the circuit board? Sent from my iPhone 5 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oztrooper[TK] Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 I removed the battery enclosure by dremelling it off which still left a sealed enclosure.....I extended the wires for the 9v and located it elsewhere in the bucket...I was then able to fit the Memorex unit where the vocoder is ....I then fabricated a bracket out of ABS and attached it to the casing of the Memorex unit and the ends of the bracket to where the mic tip threads are at using nuts to secure it... Just an FYI it leaves very little room between your chin and the Memorex unit so this may not work for everyone.....I actually carved a unit out of foam and test fitted it before hacking into the Memorex unit....if I could figure out how to post a pic here of the unit inside my bucket I would....

TimmerFett Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 (edited) My Memorex transmitter is velcroed into my buckets forehead area, with a piece of foam to cushion my head. It fits perfectly. Edited October 23, 2014 by TimmerFett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
