No, no, no!
We are much better dressed than that. No CB crap.
We support Goodwill Industries, Salvation Army, and other charity resale shops
with our purchases.
Then we recycle them. We also like to use some imagination, er, rather wild
imagination, though.
Go to Paul's link to his pix, and you'll see what we mean.
Also, we bathe regularly 'cuz we like each other's company. :-)

So, is the goal to try to dress like the majority of hamvention attendees?
I'll have to find some red suspenders and iron my callsign onto a
snapback ball cap and check with MFJ for an HT headset...and whew this
could be costly. Where do you buy those things? There is no cost in
failing to shave or bathe for a few days, but the rest will take some
hunting
