Description

We have had a stretch of decent nights in the last 2 weeks, and I have been experimenting with Telegizmo 365 covers to leave things set up in my yard. My job takes up most of my time in this part of the year, leaving no time to set up and tear down. The covers have worked well. It is certainly a leap of faith leaving your equipment out in the rain and snow!

I gathered this data over many nights around March 14th. There was a bit of a breeze, and I had to throw away many subs. I eventually took the dew shield off the C11 which helped settle things a bit.
