Thanks to all who responded with both the legal and moral issues surrounding
this discussion.  I guess my posting reflected a fit of emotional disfunction
when I implied that I intended to jam my neighbors radio and TV reception.
It's a most frusterating situation and when several postings suggested
knocking on the door (something that has been exhaustively attempted) my
fuse blew.

I do not condone illegally transmitting on frequencies for which you are
not authorized. I would stand to loose my amateur license as well
as possibly going to jail.  It's not worth that much to me just to
get even with these jerky neighbors.

As many e-mail responses indicated, there are plenty of other ways to
approach this problem.  I like the idea of a sound absorbing barrier
against the offending wall--  I'm going to pursue this approach rather
than the RF one.

End of "re: audio jamming" for me...
