Complete equipment for a storm chaser

A few photos of the setup we used this season are here:

Gene's probably right on the wire ties, they might not be a good idea for a permanent installation, especially over the winter. Since I only use my station on long chase trips and special occasions, the ties work well for short-term easy-on, easy-off use. Wire ties also won't scratch the finish on the rack. If I kept the station on permanently I'd use aluminum brackets.

Nice solution, Dan. Now I'm still dubious between wire ties and magnetic support...Anyway where did you buy your wire ties? Can I find'em in a normal store, as wal mart, for example? Thans for answers!
