Up until now I was thinking about using that mounting solution for a domestic radio.
@DaveInDenver brought up some
ventilation related warnings though for the radio being buried into the center console.
The one shown is IP67 so mounted often below the seat, behind dash, or in glove compartment. It does not require open-air mounting.
These statements cannot be blanket yes or no.
You DO need to allow airflow around ALL radios. Sorry Scott, but that's physics. Radios and really all electronics can overheat pretty easily in a truly air tight container. You can prove this to yourself. Put an HT into a Tupperware with all it's surfaces air gapped from the sides. It'll get hot even just on RX.
So how much air flow is the devil in the details. These radio I believe are 5W. That's important to know. Dealing with 5W is like the heat of a handheld instead of 25 or 50 watts people may be used to with ham mobiles.
Also duty cycle matters. Radios generate
significantly more heat transmitting than receiving, so if you're a talker or have your APRS set to beacon every 30 seconds at full power you need more air flow. I had to augment my 5W data radio's heat sink. This radio was intended for very periodic data bursts, like once an hour. At even around 3 minutes between transmissions I appeared to be pushing it's duty cycle limits.
One thing I notice is you say IP67 is the rating, which would imply dust and waterproof. Not just a little, but up to 1 meter for 30 minutes while operating. I've never seen this radio up close but the best I've ever personally seen is the old Yaesu FTM-10R that was intended for motorcyles. In that case it was only the face that was waterproof and even that was only IP57. The body had to be in a dry location because of the face remote, antenna, power and ext speaker jacks.
In any case assuming that's true or at least close to it this would suggest there is of course no fan or vents in the body.
I'd want to make sure at least one side had decent exposure to air moving around it. Under a seat is likely absolutely fine (I have a 50W commercial mobile fan-less under my seat on top of carpet, but it has a huge heat sink with tons of fins). On the back wall behind a seat back, fine, too. I would take more care in a glove box. Not so much because of the box itself but it would likely get junk throw on top of it, blocking air flow. Behind the dash, mostly fine, maybe use the way Toyota mounted various ECUs as an example. Stuck in a cubby or console, here again just be mindful of not having a jacket and a pile of napkins burying it. My rule of thumb is once mounted if I can wrap my hands around the radio then it should be fine.
Take all that FWIW.
. They make radios for Australian defense forces; same stuff reprogrammed for GMRS now. Not China. Digital processing, even in their antennas. Get regular software and firmware updates like your phone. Built in GPS when the FCC says yes.
