Ah, but the problem is that most don’t care.
Sad but true.
But showing a man how good it can be
AND how bad it can be sounds like informed consent (
I tried ol' buddy).
Might need to make a trip in someone else’s vehicle someday. So putting together a SlipSeater Box is a to-do list item. (Can go on seat or floor).
This is what I meant by radio "kit"
Something like a parred down version of your erector set (
more compact, but still plenty potent).
A kit built to suit my ends, so not to be a waste of resources (
but one that also serves as a hasty example).
"Let's take a ride, and you turn on that splatter box you call a radio."
"That sounds pretty rough partner. What you get out of that thing? Couple three miles?"
With everything together, and everything choked up best as can be without sacrificing simple deployment.
Plug. Clamp. Plop.
"Now listen to this..."
Maybe a dozen men don't take the bait (
but the one that does is now chasing better comms, and he's in my AO).
He's now an asset, and I his.
"Here comes 'possum, that ol' CB Evangelist!"
