Thanks to Rich, WN0X for his input on these trackers. His input
has been very helpful in making some little changes that make a big
difference!

Storm Case bottom
Top with NMO installed
Notice the circle below the date stamps
After drilling from the top and installing the NMO , I found
that it looked to be dead center in the circle from the picture
to the left. Couldnt have planned that any better if
I tried!
Magnets installed
Magnet view of bottom
Template for inside tray - The corners can
be sheared at a 45 degree angle beginning at 1 inch from the
original corners of the tray. This
keeps the corners from hitting the sides of the case and provides
an easy 'finger hole' to ease in tray removal.
Template again - Tray (as cut) measures
exactly 9.25 X 7.25 inches. Actual tray will need to
be a bit smaller to accomodate sitting just a little lower
in the case due to less of the screws holding the magnets protruding
into the case. When I measured and cut the template,
I didnt have any ruber washers between the magnets and the
case bottom.
