Hi Rob,

Just a couple of things regarding your post.

When using the daily digests and replying to the list, please trim the
digest to only the portion to which you wish to reply.

As far as adding a 10' tower to your vehicle, good stuff.  As an
amateur operator, you'll have a lot of experience with and interest in
antennas from which we can learn.  Mobile antennas and your vehicle
itself would both be considered "too temporary" to put on the map in
OSM.  If you wish to use OSM with mobile antennas please consider one
of the overlay strategies so that you can keep your mobile antenna
data in a separate database.

Oh, and one last thing, Rob, OSM is an international community.  The
discriminatory tag line in your .sig file is hate speech[1] in my
eyes.  Hate speech is unwelcome on this list.  Your tag line also
mis-uses "their" when you certainly intended to use "they're".
