[Amps] Good engineering...More Car Computer Horror Stories

[WA3GIN]

Most Car OBComputers I've seen are completely sealed in metal cases...some 
of the accessory boards are not...when I owned an Izusu Rodeo I could open 
up the automatic door locks running 50 watts on 40m SSB.  In fact for grins 
one night we went to the dealership and with 500 watts unlocked all the 
trucks in the lot...what a hoot. But that was 10-15yrs ago.
