I was driving down I-81 and saw a police car parked in the bushes. I keep my PM-5 in my Kenwood programmed with the POLICE-9 object name and the POLICE symbol. My text is supposed to say "de wb4apr" but it appears that maybe I did not have status set to 1/1 so that is included on all my packets. I'll have to check that. It is trivial to mark such objects as you drive if you have preset a PM with the object name and info. Just press PM-5, then hit BCON button once or twice until you see it digipeated, then go back to normal operations on PM-1. Meanwhile everyone nearby sees the object. APRS is all about INFO, not just vehicle tracking. If we have info of value to others in the area, we should take the initiative to transmit it. Bob, WB4APR
