Buy a rig, an antenna, and pay some people to put it up.
Presumably the
only requirement is to know how to read, talk and mash the PTT
button.

"Mash" the push-to-talk button? That means those
owners have to know where to get the PTT control
fixed! :-)

Yep, he said "mash," but must have been mistaken when he said they
would know how to read.

You see, people that use a microphone are clods. They would never
"depress" the ptt button, nor would they "press down" on it. They are
of low intelligence and barely human, and only know how to "mash" said
button. If no one is looking, they may actually step on the microphone
with bare, dirty feet and yell into it.

People who use a telegraph key are genteel. They know how to properly
close the contacts, form a character, and move on. They do so with
their pinkie finger extended, and have no dirt under their nails.

For it is written.

I think I just found Larry Roll.
