You Can Make Thieves Take Time...
Posted by: VK1NF on Feb-05-13 3:53 PM (EST)

...make 'em make noise, make 'em bring tools...and there's not a heck of a lot more you can do.

Best I've come up with is a length of 1/4" stainless steel 1x19 rigging wire with eyes swaged in each end and a BIG padlock - a real bear to cut, even with good bolt cutters. They'll likely move on to an easier target...
