i was just out doing an FYBO (Freeze Your Boots Off) shake down run in the
snow.
i put my KX1 in an 8" x 7" thin plastic bag.
i cut a hole in the side for the paddle.
It works well, it is a little hard to tune the big frequency knob but
it kept it very dry.
Just worked w5kdj, ak5x, kd7bvn pedestrian mobile with a 10 foot whip.
VE3WMB has his KX1 out today, operating pedestrian mobile, i just worked him
on 14060 at 1948Z.
