I have been an Amateur Radio operator (ham) since I was 14 years old. I have now been licensed for 46 years (you do the math!). I've never tried operating from my Model A because I fear the ignition noise would be fierce.

I am 95% a CW operator somewhat active on 40, 30, 20 and 15 meters. I only have a Windom antenna up in the trees near my condo now. At one time I had BIG antennas and BIG power to them. I've kinda gone full circle now using 100 watts to the wire antenna just like when I started as a teenager.
