Hmmm, what a great toy to use when the cops are chasing you <G>. Id like to
use it on tailgaters.
Finally a market for all those surplus 4CX250's.
PP 300 MHz oscillators anyone? 2500V unfiltered DC right off a 3 phase xfmr
driven by the alternator
How much gain is there in a 4' yagi at that frequency?
Gee, a whole new market for pre computer vans as the device would probably
wipe out any computerized vehicle carrying it.

Coming Soon -- Microwave Gun That Can Destroy Your Car From 600 Feet Away
A Pasadena, California company has created a device that will destroy a
car'
s electrical system and stop it dead in its tracks. Just one pulse from
this
beam disables cars up to 50 feet away.
How does it work? One beam pulsed in a burst lasting just 50 nanoseconds
disrupts your vehicle's electrical system. The radiation can overload
wires,
or damage or upset your car's central microprocessor.
Their prototype is 5 feet long, 3 feet wide, 1 foot thick, and weighs just
under 200 pounds. With proper funding, it may be possible to create a
device
weighing only 50 pounds that works from 600 feet away.
It operates on the same general principle as a microwave oven, but at a
300
megahertz frequency, rather than your standard microwave oven, which
operates at about 2.5 gigahertz. It is said to be non-harmful to humans.
