I thought about installing my 2m radio in my car so that I have something to
occupy part of my cross-country drive next year (I hope), but maybe it's not
worth it. If I knew there were folks along the way regularly monitoring .52,
I'd do it.

Fugetaboutit!

K0CKB and I travel many thousands of miles a year in a coach with "K0HB & K0CKB
monitoring 146.52" prominently displayed on the back.

We also frequently announce our presence on .52. In the past 5 years we've had
precisely 2 QSO's on .52 as a result.

Don't bother.
