Yes, but I assume these are functionally similar to what I use, but in a wa=
terproof and tamper proof box that can be chained to a tree. I keep the rec=
order (M10) in a clip lock lunchbox, but haven't done much to protect the m=
ics. I rely on my ability to hide them well for security, and I don't go ve=
ry far away.=0D

I'd like to improve the protection to the point where I could leave it out =

If you just want to try this, you can just leave your recorder running with=
out monitoring. It means you can't be sure that what you're getting is ok, =
you'll likely end up with more unidentified species in the recording, and t=
here's a chance someone will nick your recorder, but otherwise it's far mor=
e convenient than running a cable.=0D
