Only a "short" while ago (the early 1950's) few Hams had mobile rigs.
Virtually everyone on the air was working from a fixed station.

One of the games mobile operators played was to drive over to another Ham's
QTH and shock him with a call from the curb in front of the house,
completely swamping their receiver with a gadzillion dB over S-9 signal.

Of course it only worked once, but was good for a laugh followed by a cup of
coffee or an '807' or two.

I was recently able to check in with my KX-3 for the first time in a year.
 All it took was driving from Florida to Montana with my Radio ;-)  Makes
the hobby an endurance sport!
