Read Brother John's post & Ralph's response.  The 'D' ring thing is what
I use on my Santana VHF from West Marine (the radio is a Uniden
knock-off).  Keeps the thing close and operable as I have yet to see it
become dysfunctional having been soaked in salt and fresh water.  Bought
a waterproof bag but it's hard to channel tune the beasty after the
initial call cause my old eyes can't always see the wee little LCD
screen!

The 'goin' south' thing however sounds awfully good right now with all
the ice on Lake Michigan - Hey, John!  Meet you at Milwaukee's Mitchell
Field in about 30 minutes!  Ralph, ya got a couple of boats for two
frozen souls?  Well come south just to the point at which we bring out
the dry suits and someone says, "What's that thing!".
