                * Ham Radio in the Movies*

Can you spot the Comet mobile antennas in the reboot of Star Trek?
    It is in the first 5 minutes and it's hard to spot. There are several
               antennas visible and they are out in the open.
         You may have to step through the frames to find them,
            but they are there.   Good luck-- N5VCX
