| Small red car with SIMRAD radar antenna housing? Anybody else see this thing? Looked it up, SIMRAD sells boat equipment? Broadband Radar™ | SIMRAD BR24 | Marine Radar Just a ham operator using that as a shell? Or is there a reason someone would mount a small radar to a cars roof?

| SIMRAD also makes mobile/marine satellite dishes. He could have Dish Network in the car. |

| Most likely a "storm chaser". Many are volunteers and use their own cars. |

| You'd be surprised at what some of these people chase storms in! Everything from an armored vehicle to a two-seater convertible! Google "storm chasers" and see what you get! A lot of pictures out there of people and vehicles and gear. They work with what they've got. Volunteers. Not much "budget" there.... |
