It wasn't for
emergency use so much as for DXing. I think it was on the cover of CQ
magazine, but I couldn't afford subscriptions in those days so I'm not
sure.

It sure looks familiar. Mainly the old mercury wagon, and the way the
gear was set up. It's possible the article mentioned dxing, or maybe
even field day use, but can't remember..But I do remember he set it up
to be multi-op, with people at different radios. Maybe that would ring
a bell...Of course, it's possible that there was someone else with the
same type setup...But that car sure looks familiar...It's hard for me
to check the issues, as I have them packed away in a closet, but if I
run across it, and it's the same guy, I'll scan it for you.
I've got many issues of old qst's and CQ's, etc the oldest going back
into the 30's. Loads of them for the late 40's and 50's. It was a 50's
issue I'm sure, with that car...MK
