I have received information that two hams have been stopped while driving in
the Winstead area of Connecticut because the police have a new computerized
license plate reader. Apparently the system cannot tell the difference
between the lightning bolt impressed into a ham's plate from a number 1.
The computer system misreads the tag and sends an alert to the officer. We
are not yet sure just how many other police units have or will receive these
new readers with this flaw. Until there is a resolution to this issue, hams
are reminded of the need to keep copies of their license and auto
registration handy.
