 | | Chronologically, these happened in the order presented: first there were the fixed ham shacks, then the mobileers, and finally the body-borne technologies (portable and wearable, implantables, etc.). |
 | | Of particular interest are the latter two categories (Mobile and Portable) because they have been made possible by miniaturization of components. |
 | | The Mobile category has been explored in detail by KA6WKE in terms of how to deal with the less than optimal antennas and grounding systems of mobile units (within, for example, a 1992 Ford Escort station wagon, being a small car, that presents many such challenges). |
