[Ron Hashiro]

Hawaii Hams,

On the first day of Honolulu's mobile cellular telephone ordinance, 
reports have been received of police officers that are not fully aware 
of the exemption for amateur radio in the ordinance.  Ham radio 
operators are encouraged to keep a copy in your vehicle glove 
compartment, in case you are stopped by a police officer.

For Honolulu, you can get a softcopy/link to the softcopy at these
