"Nerd Girls" was an oxymoron when I was in high school. At a drive-in
movie in the family car, and not yet having made "The move" to the back
seat, she pointed to the Gonset converter on the steering column and
asked, "What's that?" I said, in my most professional voice, "That's
part of the two-way radio, here is the microphone for the transmitter in
the trunk" and then pressed PTT, the PE-103 spun up and I identified.
She seemed satisfied. Alas, the corona ball on the top of the 8' whip
had come off, the TX created a lively electrical display from the pointy
end, the manager showed up at the car, and "The move" never happened
that night.

Perhaps it was the nerd girls who started paying attention?
