Hello All, thought i would post an interest thread for my new RF top. This consists of a 0.8 mm alloy RF body (as seen on my previous RF tops) and will now be available with a screen accurate Perspex lens block. I am still tweaking the final details of this part, here's a teaser of what i have been able to produce so far...

Any possiblity youd consider casting the housing in Fiber glass,?
Well, I have gone down the resin casting route before. The issue was making the casting thin enough to house many of the LED top mounted units people have been using. The beauty of the 0.8 mm alloy top is that maximum space can be achieved internally, where the Perspex lens block locates in the top section, this is thickened with plastic card to give the appearance it is approximately 2 mm thick. The alloy also gives more options for different stalk mounting options.
