Re: Ham Radio License Plates?
Fri, November 11, 2005 - 6:52 PMMy Father does, but I don’t. I have wanted one and in Colorado it’s only 2 buck to get it.
Pro: Hams find each other on the road. As if the antennas weren’t a dead give a way.
Pro: Hams can call you on the air by your call. A lot of local hams place the frequency they listen to on the back window.
Pro: It looks cool parked next to the other hams at the local club meeting or on field day.
Pro: As a Skywarn participant it helps the police understand why you're parked on top of the hill, by yourself, on a dark and stormy night.
Con: It’s easy for non-hams to get your name.
Con: The local radio thief gets an idea that you might have radio worth taking in your car.
