Quote:"The equipment seems to cover an amazing array of technologies, many of which seem to be redundant. For instance, just how many handheld 144 MHz radios do you need? It seems like the owner of the Ham Car is capable of listening to every police/fire/ems/military channel in the world. Simultaneously. There's a laptop and we assume there's some form of cellular or satellite communication setup for that, too."
hah! You know whats funny about that? -- I have a really crappy old car too and I just installed a laptop, desk, GPS etc in my car to make a "car" office. I guess I might as well upgrade it and add some more radio comms stuff.
