AHEM!!!! Puleeze don't do this! Some of us use radio a lot, and we don't wan't to listen to your spark plugs! Some of us fly airplanes, and we REALLY don't want to have your spark plugs mess up our nav/com equipment. If you insist on such foolishness (and, I admit, the attractions are certainly there), get something that will only radiate on or near the frequency you want to disable. And, remember, if Uncle Charlie (FCC) catches you at this, you can end up in seriously deep doo-doo (like, for example, Leavenworth)! -- John Moore (NJ7E) hao!noao!mcdsun!nud!anasaz!john (602) 870-3330 (day or evening) The opinions expressed here are obviously not mine, so they must be someone else's.
