It looks like something that was spewed out of somebody's laser printer, if you ask me...

Oh, and by the way, 73's! de N0ZAP!

Wow! another ham on the forum - great. And a Proton owner!

The sign auction does say it is on aluminum versus cardboard or paper. Anyhow, I may get one just to put in the garage, to keep the XYL from parking there.

I couldn't do that. I only have a single-car garage, and I have to share it with the Subaru. I can't have the Subaru angry at me. That just won't do.

There's always the good old internet sign generator! Here

BTW, have you done any antenna mounting, yet? I'm thinking I'm going to go ahead a drill in an NMO mount an inch forward of the dome light. Any further back and I run into roof ridges. And farther forward, and I don't think I can get the cable run, let alone I start losing groundplane. Fortunatly, I'm pretty much limited to 2m/70cm, so the antennas are manageable. I've selected a little Diamond antenna (NR72BNMO, I think) that is short enough to hang out on top all the time.

I have not mounted any antennas on the VX. I currently do not operate any mobile equipment, only do HF contests from the home several weekends per year.

If I did try to mount an antenna, I would first consider one of those capacitor-coupled units that stick on the window glass. That way there would be no need to drill any holes.
