Scott,
Thank you for the reply.? I will be
looking at that rack mount for another non HAM Pi project.
I was not clear enough in my
description of the box and mounting goals.
The Pi is in a metal case (the VHF/UHF
is a NWDR DRAWS package).
I found a 6 in shelf and will hold the
Pi and PowerPoles power distribution block. This will
allow me to put a cover on the shelf
and drill some holesfor power connectors to keep
it looking cleaner.

Here would be an option if multiple RPIs would be needed for
your operation.?

I use velcro to mount my Pi to the side of
my gobox. I also use velcro to mount my signal links and
12v usb plug. I have a slide out shelf that I use for the
bluetooth keyboard and mouse. I have a 12" monitor that
runs off of 12vdc I take it off the stand and store it in
a padded envelope when transporting it. My monitor is not
mounted in my box. I set it on the shelf that holds my
FT8900 and mfj auto antenna tuner when in use. I have a
991a mounted to the bottom of the shelf using the mobile
mounting bracket and two signal links mounted using velcro
to the bottom of it too.
I hope this helps!

I am
building two Go Boxes based on the Pi and BAP - one HF
and one VHF/UHF.
The boxes are the Gator 4U (VHF/UHF) and might need 6U
for HF. I am
trying to
keep weight down by no using shelves. I got face plates
custom made the hold
the radios and the HF tuners.
Two questions :
1) What do you recommend to use to mount the Pi in the
back?
2) What is your recommendation for mounting a 12v DC
HDMI monitor?
For the monitor, I am looking do something like mounting
the drawer slides
and build a cross bar that attaches to the VESA plate on
the monitor.
