A customer called this week, the woman said
I've got a new van but it's getting unwanted attention everywhere I go
I was wondering if you could take all the bits off it so I can sleep in the back
It took around half a second for me to agree
When I went to the house, it was the OB Van that had been on Facebook the day before
It was also assumed to be the Drug Squads OPs Van as it was parked in the same street as a drug bust
Most of the encoders and modulators were stripped out but it had a 2.4ghz dish with EL AZ control
Nice 12V compressor and pump up mast, yet to be seen if it's good
Cheers Roger VK5YYY

Re: OB Van Decommisioning
Very nice. I know someone looking for one of those. Shipping would be a killer.

Roger,
I was driving along grange rd a week or two ago and was following one of those. I thought it was the google van until i saw the sat dish folded over.
