Most times I drive in the Right Lane, but whichever Lane I'm in I try watching the car ahead and maybe the car ahead of it if the one in front of me isn't so large I can't see pass it. If the car ahead of me gets nearer than the Three Second Rule I slow down to keep enough distance between us just in case a car passes me in the Left Lane and wants to get in the space in front of my car. But usual driving allows lots of time to practice looking at License Plates as cars pass in the Left Lane. Something in the back of Ed's Head tells me I've read that the WX or KX Prefix for a Amateur Radio Call Sign means that it is a Experimental Station of some sort, but I can not find anything in my library that say anything about that. Have You ever seen anything that refers to Experimental Stations having a X as the second letter in their Call Sign Prefix? Maybe I'm just dreaming. ? ? ??? ??? ? ? EV>Both Indiana and Kentucky Auto License Plates have three Letters and three EV>numerals (usually). DS> Same for Arkansas. Then, you have all the vanity plates. The DS> disabled/handicapped plates have a 6 digit number only. When I'm sounding off Call Signs as cars pass me I don't do the numerals becuz they are 5 unit codes and take a long time compared to the Letters on the License Plates just having 4 units maximum in each of the 26 letters in the alphabet. --.. -.-- -..- .-- ...- ..- - ... .-. --.- .--. --- -. -- .-.. -.- .--- .. ..... --. ..-. . -.. -.-. -... .- 73 es God Bless You and Brother = de Ed W9ODR . .
