Is it possible that I´m an alien from Outer space or am I just a mutant?

But at least I receive music from all over the world.

What, simultaneously? That's gotta make for one whopper of a
headache. ;-)

Odd that you should mention antennas on one's head. I've seen a
couple of hams mount an SO239 through the top of a hard hat, glue
aluminum foil connected to the shield side on the inner surface, and
attach a 2m or 440 flexi-whip to the topside for use with their
handheld. It apparently works pretty well, but it's not something I
would choose to do.

Shiny side out, Anton?

I've also seen more than a few folks put a GPS antenna inside a hat
or cap, so that the only thing showing is the lead down to the GPS.

It takes _all_ kinds, as the saying runs.

Don't forget the battery powered AM tube radio built on a pith
helmet, with the tubes sticking out the top! ;-) I think it was Bill
Morris who posted a picture on news:alt.binaries.radio.pictures a couple
months back.

In 'Amateur Radio Techniques' by Pat Hawker (RSGB publications)
there's a design called a 'titfer' for a hat antenna for 2m operation.

I had a friend that I used to like to run around with. He always had some good
C & W music for me......... sometimes reception was better than others though.
