Hi Charles,
My story is somewhat similar. When I was a young lad living in Wisconsin
I got hooked on CB radio (before the Hey Good Buddy craze ruined it). I
had a 5 channel Johnson Messenger I with a whole 5 watts output and a
1/4 wave dipole on the garage roof. Not satisfied with talking to the
locals, I bought a 1 kW linear amp for it. Very early one Sunday morning
I was talking skip to some guys in Louisiana. Apparently it woke up the
neighbors across the street. The father came over complained to my
mother. Asked what he was talking about, he explained that they could
hear me on their console stereo/record player in their living room. And
it was turned off! I was booming into their living room loud enough to
get them out of bed. And telling tall stories about something or other.
Don't recall the details of my skip talk but surely still remember my
first encounter with EMI. Been playing at EMI ever since.

Hi Charles,
One Sunday when my dad was young & attending church with his family,
he heard a ragged voice came over the church PA (public address)
system saying something to the effect of "Car 54, where are you?"
Without breaking a beat, the pastor said "That may be the voice of
God, but I sincerely doubt it."

All,
I want to take a moment to thank the members of the listserver for the
questions and responses given. Although I rarely post, I've been
following this mailing list for almost 20 years. It's always been an
interesting mix of practical, theoretical, and legal/political
issues. My EMC learning curve has been accelerated greatly.
Participation in the listserver should get you 'Continuing Education'
credits. ;)
Thanks,
Pat

Hi all,
I am writing a column internal to my company about the topic
of EM emissions. Considering the topic(!) I would like to
add some humor to keep the reader engaged.
I would be grateful if any of you that have humerous stories
related to EMI that you would share them with me!
Thanks
Charles Grasso
