is it water proof? or would it need to go into a dry radio box?

I installed this in my jeep wrangler which has been has been rained on multiple times with the top off and it has done well. I would define it more as water resistant.

No it's not. Mine only lasted one season in a dry box. I do not recommend it at all !

I don't think it is water proof. Back cover isn't sealed. If you need to use it outside in the rain, put it in a zip lock bag.

I wouldn't worry about a light rain for a very brief time, but water could easily get in this thing. The knobs, plugs, speaker, and battery compartment are not sealed.

I have one. Although I wouldn't call it waterproof it is in a secure plastic box.

Yes the receiver is small and should fit it is not waterproof so if plan to run in wet areas you'll need a receiver box great product

I think it's water proof. I mounted mine on the chassis and it is working fine. Only had in use for a few weeks now.

I would never call it waterproof but I have been rained on a bit and nothing got inside. Keep a poncho with you in it, just in case.

It's definitely not waterproof(Though I've had the receiver buried in melting snow for about an hour). Range is pretty decent, (I've tested it up to about 70-80 meters). But I'm using it with an RC car.

Is a box waterproof I will say no but if you keep it underneath a Patio or porch at will say yes. It will stay dry It is water resistant at that point But if you're talking about submerging it underwater no it's definitely not a waterproof box The box can be install anywhere but you have to install anchors first to the concrete floor to properly secure the box When you receive the package there will be anchors inside the box that way you can secure the box properly to the floor But overall I think for a drop box This is a great safe box If you have apartments or condos and people can drop off the rent in this box I think that's a great solution for this box or if you're just looking for personal use I also think it's still a great box It is very well built

I dont think that the speaker is water proofThe end of the radio is open to the rain.

I have never used it wet or allowed the main unit to get wet. I doubt that it is water proof. My recommendation is to not get it wet, but other may have had no problem. Better safe than sorry.

Yes the transmitter is waterproof at least according to website and instructions. The receiver is also waterproof and no problems with it after being in the lake many times.

I believe the radio can handle the occasional rain drop splash with no problem. It's nicely made and has a tight cabinet. The only weakness would be the speaker itself which is only a paper cone. My real concern for your application is volume. I really like the unit but outdoor in an open area, it doesn't get very loud.

The unit is not water proof but could easily be put in a water proof container.

It has worked after getting wet but not marketed as waterproof. Try plastic, clear ziploc bag. It will not interfere with the functions.

Mine is very waterproof, as I swim with mine. Reception is not fabulous but could get quite a few stations.

Hi Dave, This antenna maybe weatherproof but not waterproof. It's designed for indoor use, it just won't last as long outside. Hope this helps.Phil
