Just ran into an article in the May 1952 issue of CQ.  W6RL installed a 
teletype model 12 into his 1952 Chevy Carryall.  A seperate Kohler "light 
plant" was also installed in the back.  BC-348 receiver and 813 transmitter 
running 300 watts was the transmitter.

The 80 meter whip is 40 feet.  The article says he did operate while in 
motion.  (maybe less overpasses in those days).

73,  Colin  K7FM
