[AMRadio] Coming Soon -- Microwave Gun
Received via email; source unattributed. 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 carÂ’ 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.

Re: [AMRadio] Coming Soon -- Microwave Gun
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.

Probably could drop some people in their tracks if they're driving the car and using some of the newer pacemakers.

Re: GB Re: [AMRadio] Coming Soon -- Microwave Gun
SweeT ! Mine is a 83 Dodge B350 (1 ton), extended wheelbase and extended cab with a 360, 4bbl, RV cam, and headers. A full 10' tower section goes in with almost a foot to spare before it hits the seats. A previous one was a 85 B250 with the 318. Body and suspension basically disentergrated to pure oxide but the engine trans were still running well at 392K. It was also the double extended version. We have another beater here for local hauling, dump runs, etc. 1978 Ford E150 with the 300 sixbanger. No stinkin' computers, or performance killing sensors.

Re: [AMRadio] Coming Soon -- Microwave Gun
This is kind of old news. I know when I was in the military my ship, a very large aircraft carrier, prior to going to the yards for overhaul, was scheduled with an EMP generator. I don't know why it was scrapped but they can-X'ed it. I remember seeing what the original plans were. My dept/div. was OE. We had control of the ships operational electronics such as radars, computers and radio/data communication. If memory serves me, they wanted to see how close we could get to a A-bomb EMP event before it rendered all electronics useless. On a side note. When that Soviet pilot flew that MIG-25 to Japan, a lot of the investigators laughed because all the avionics was based on electron tube technology. Until one person spoke and stated, Maybe they built it like this on purpose. Whereas tubes are substaniantally more hardy to an EMP event than solid state. Another fine reason to keep building and using hollow state technology;) Mod-U-Lator, Mike(y) W3SLK __ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:AMRadio@mailman.qth.net To unsubscribe, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
