Very impressive! 

IIRC, you were somewhat of a regular here.  Thank you for posting.

That's for the hurricane hunters

When it gets a good steady wind, it's all how it should be.

I got it wrote down somewhere, it's just under 9 pounds, or close to that.

It's already mounted where it's going to be. The base fills with water,it's not going anywhere.

I have 2 of that base, inside unit does not have water in it.

It looks and works great in my eye.
