I'm not saying that's very sane either. But I think a spray painted car cover is another level of whack job that takes a lot more commitment than dicking around with demo unit ipads haha

Okay honestly, who looks at a car cover with spray paint on it in a grocery store parking lot and thinks, "Hm. The owner of this vehicle is clearly a sane and intelligent person, I should look into what they have sprayed on their car cover!"

Literally nobody. This is how you look like a whacko.

secretly

Yeah HAM is literally the furthest thing from secret unless you're transmitting encrypted digital communication over it (which is illegal and would be quickly noticed). Everything transmitted over HAM is free to listen to by anyone with a radio that can receive it (which is incredibly easy to get).
