A: You could use the Remote Audio URSA Pouch for Wireless Transmitters - Large, Black (B&H # REUPOUCHLABL) which is also available in beige. The transmitter is 3.9" (100mm) high when measuring to the top of the antenna, 2.6" (65mm) across, and 0.94" (24mm) deep. The URSA Pouch is 3.9 x 3.1" (99 x 78mm). The On-Stage MA1435 Wireless Transmitter Body Pack Belt (B&H # ONMA1435) could also work. The pouch is 3.5 x 3 x 1" (89 x 25 x 76mm) so the antenna would stick out, which is how many wireless transmitter pouches are designed.
