“The Green Egg for Ham is a cute name for a 3D printed cover for your NMO antenna mounts. The Motorola style NMO mount is a popular style mount for amateur radio antennas. And you’ll want to keep your mount covered or capped if you don’t have an antenna on it. Otherwise you run the risk of water leaking into the mount and causing all sorts of problems.
The Green Egg for Ham is a fun way to do that. The cover is about 2.5 inches tall by 2 inches wide and is threaded so it can screw onto the antenna mount. It should provide waterproof protection of your antenna mount while being a little whimsical at the same time. General 3D Green Egg for Ham: http://www.general3d.com“
