Fortunately I've never had that issue but I did get a fire truck pulling up
next to me at Fiesta Island here in San Diego once (with one of the
firefighters being interested in my full size 20 meter vertical and asking
questions about my radio setup). That was pretty cool.
(MFJ ~17' telescoping whip screwed into a Buddipole Versa-Tee + 1-2 raised
radial wires cut to quarter wavelength at 20 meters. With a KX3 driving it,
of course.)
