Another favourite from 2005 was this gem, taken by Josh K6ZRX at the Livermore, California swap meet. (Thanks for the heads up, man!)
A homemade magmount with homemade test points….. it doens’t look like it could survive a brief rainstorm much less a few miles on a windy interstate. But man, those magnets will ensure that unit don’t go NOWHERE.
I’ll be publishing a few more of my favourites throughout the week.
Well, sort of a get together. Batdude and motorola_otaku met up, with a bunch of hot chicks.
From all of us here at Hamsexy dot com, we wish you and yours the best for Christmas, and a successful and prosperous New Year. Take a moment to consider those less fortunate than us, and take a moment to visit your local Ham in one of our nations many retirement homes, nursing centres, hospitals, VFWs & Leigons, Convalescence homes, homes for the aged, Rascal ™ showrooms, sanatoriums, hip and knee replacement rehab centres, graveyards, etc.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, everyone!

So, we’ll publish it. It’s got radios and food… can’t get more hamsexy than that.

2005 was certainly a good year in Hamsexy. Between now and the end of the year we will be revisiting some of our more memorable Hamsexy vehicles.
First, the winner of the 2005 Hamsexy Hooptiethon, the Porcupine Cruiser!
If you remember, it was a Caprice with a whacktastic lightbar, more antennae than most international airports, a sickening jumble of scanners and radios littering the inside, and a baffling placement of an orange strobe beacon….. as it was postulated before, to prevent any chance of seeing out the back window through the forest of antennae.
We’ll be featuring more between now and the end of the year. Enjoy!
Just proof that some idiots have absolutley NOTHING else better to do with their lives…

I’m sure there are charities he could be contributing to, or maybe finally shovelling the snow out from the sidewalk…..
More proof that Ham Radio is doomed.
