Re: Mounting New Radio

How tall are those feet?

In the past, we've used Scotch/3m Duallock fasteners to hold our radios down. We've had occasional trouble getting the duallock to stick to our control board or the modem, but not to each other. When we've cleaned plastic surfaces (e.g. with alcohol) prior to use, we've done pretty well. Duallock is nearly 1/4" thick when engaged. If that's not enough, a fairly light spacer (such as a piece currogated plastic sign board) in the mix should be able to fill the gap.
