If you're going to do that just have two copies and put one on the starter-side
windshield of the car. But I don't think it really helps much - if you have the
starter radio in the number s/he can just as easily radio in the car description
and class.
One problem with all this radioing around is that it's NOISY in the trailer -
the speakers are booming, there's at least one radio going with cone counts,
another with questions/answers to the course workers, a fairly high level of
conversation needed between the card sorter and scorer. It gets hard to hear
radio traffic.
