[Discuss-gnuradio] USRP / Laptop Road case?

2012-09-23 Thread davek
im searching for a heavy duty road case to house my laptop and B100 for portable use. Optionally would like to stick some gel cells in there while away from AC power. I am thinking putting the laptop and usrp side be side on the top with batterys underneath, or laptop on top, usrp / battery under.
