I was chatting with a seller at a car book a few weeks ago, I am pretty sure he was a prepper by the stuff he was selling and the pouches and bags clipped on the back door of his Land Rover, I made some remark about being "ready for the off" but we were unable to acknowledge each other without giving ourselves away to the sheeple around us, a badge or recognition signal might have come in handy in this situation.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

I sometimes hear old men muttering tunefully

Or you could just step up to his box of electronic junk and ask, "I say OM, is that a 4CX300A you have in there?"

Charles - that sounds suspiciously like "I'll show you mine if you'll show me yours"

A 4CX300A is a vintage forced air cooling ceramic tetrode (valve) capable of operation up to 500MHz.
Used in early airborne radars and UHF transmitters.
