Hi Pete and all,
Whackermobiles aside, ham rigs have sufficient memory slots to program
all the usual frequencies, experienced ops know them by heart and for the
most part never need look at the display. Then there are removable front
panels and extender cables, plenty of options so I for one never had to
fiddle around while driving.
While I've seen truckers with rigs mounted up under the cab roof and the
proverbial dangling mic I've never seen a taxi driver have so little
sense. Bad enough getting bopped in the head during a "panic" maneuver
but in a crash it can be just another part of the missile battery. Now
there's an important point, keep the interior clean and uncluttered, it
could save your life.
"...and emergency radio dodah as a reason for exemption."
Oh don't start me off on those EMRAD whackers! In the US Amateurs have
been public service exempt long before THEY came along, we just had to
remind state legislators of it being they're usually clueless on the
federal level (and anywhere beyond their noses).
Er, maybe you were thinking of Queen?
All we hear is Radio ga ga

All we hear is Radio ga ga
Radio blah blah
Radio what's new?
Radio, someone still loves you!
