So the metal body of your car did not shield you from the strong RF
field of your transmitted signal; but its interior cavity was excited
with the greatest possible field-strength. Just like a microwave
oven, with 10-m wavelength. No joke. (Was _your_ post?!)
If you drove in winter in North Dakota, I might understand why you
did it; but the numeral in your callsign is "5".
