I had one.  I suggested the same thing to the customer and his response
was, "can I use the one in my car??"    Well NO...................

Well, maybe.  When I worked for Arizona telephone company sometimes
noisy insulators on the electrical mains would cause noise on our
carrier systems.  We would drive a service truck along the power line
with the radio between stations and listen for an increase in the static
volume level.  The power company had a fancy RF communications van to do
the same thing.

"The Mighty 690" used to broadcast the top 40 on Sunday mornings.  Only
time my mom would let me drive her car was going to church on Sunday.
LOL.  I was kinda glad it was a 30 minute drive each way.
