Heh heh,
5.0L TVR Chimaera - a grown-up MX-5 !!! I'd like to see a mag-mount stay on that. My problem is that (I think) all my bodywork is either aluminium or plastic.
Somehow a QRP rig and a 5.0L TVR Chimaera don't seem to go together - unless you have a significant after-burner in the boot :-)

I let my license lapse for nearly ten years and was pleasantly
surprised 18 months ago when I called the UK RA who not only picked
the phone up straight away, but also were very helpful and explained
that they didn't require a copy of my RAE pass slip (which I'd put in
one of those 'safe' places never to be found again).
I'd also changed addresses four times since last being licensed.
Just downloaded a short form from their web site and mailed it off
with a cheque. A week later, my license arrived.
If you've got really itchy feet you might want to renew your UK
license and operate temporarily HB9/GD4ELI.
I had to laugh about the MX-5 - I operate mobile from a 5.0L TVR
Chimaera. These sports cars are all very well but there's nowhere to
mount the darned radios or antennas!
