[ILQSO] ILQSO Digest, Vol 97, Issue 32

[Mel Crichton]

Another good reason to get a driver..... in Indiana there's an exemption in 
the cell phone usage law for amateur radio..... but I would not want to test 
it, especially with a keyboard sitting right there... and there'a federal 
catch-22 (see latest QST) that may not allow amateur radio exemptions in any 
state....

I asked about Illinois law, but did not get an answer...

After decades of mobiling, I've come a long way from paper logging on a 
clipboard while driving, with a key strapped to the leg... now THAT was 
really dangerous!

Like I said.... don't try this at home...  get a second op....

My question tho Mel, could a police officer technically cite you for 
texting while driving.  I know that most hams can multi task, but many  law 
enforcement officers do not know that we can do many things.
