Gee Chris, is he actually calling your ride "girdle", or did he mean "girly"?  Wink
Knowing Ed's sense of humor, and he has a good one, I think he intended to say "girly".
Which would be right, for are not most modes of transport, plans, ships, cars given a female pronoun?

No matter what, your antenna sure looks a lot more robust than the ham stick I used on my car.
Just needs an American flag on top, and a nice neon bulb for when you transmit.

Now, back to our regularly scheduled program.

At least my setup doesn't have hamsexy stuff like gigantic triple mag mounts and multiple guy lines to hold the antenna from whipping all over the place! That behavior is why I don't use Hustler top laded  mobile antennas (at least while underway).  Those big loading coils up so high on the whip just move around too much for my liking....
