The local Police felt Sean was suspicious due to the antennas on his
car and
some of the equipment he had installed. Unfortunately, many of us
Hams have
similar things in our vehicles. These items are used for Public
Service events
such as SkyWarn, StormChasing, Traffic Control during Jogs, Parades,
Weather
Emergencies, etc.
Hopefully, this will turn out to be that Local Law Enforcement reacted
in error on
the side of caution due to the nervousness over protecting the
President. We all
need to be extra careful when in areas considered sensitive,
especially if we are
legally carrying weapons of any kind.
