I've been monitoring channel 2 for seven years.
All I ever got was that never ceasing squeals, squawk and crackle sound.
Things changed recently as I was going over a mountain in New Mexico, I
actually received a voice transmission.
It was coming from an extraterrestrial source called K-pax.
I couldn't believe it!
The sender asked who I was and where I was and then asked which frequency
they should they use to reach our leader.
I was dumfounded to say the least, they didn't seem to care about much
else.
After thinking about it for a few seconds I told them to stay on this
same channel.
They commented that they had been on this channel for 40 of our years and
hadn't reached anybody except some people that were from a tribe called
hippies that seemed to laugh a lot and say "Don't Bogart that Mic I want
to talk too".
I advised them that it was the Official Vanagon Channel and they seemed
pleased with that.
I assured them that this channel was going to be well monitored in the
future and our leader would be listening here.
So fellows log onto channel 2 and when you get the call you can pretend
that you are our leader.
They never said whether they wanted him to eat, for discussion or just to
locate him and kill him, so you're on your own.
