Default Neighbor's Stereo System Interferes With CH2 TV Reception


snip

I think building a high-power transmitter and aiming it at your
neighbor's stereo in the hope of overloading the input stages of the
amplifier is the best thing to do, even if it is illegal. If the streo
dies every time he turns the volume up, he just might figure out to
keep the volume lower. OTOH, some people just don't get it no matter
what - hence the Darwin Awards.

One of the easiest ways of obtaining a high power RF source is to saw the
oven compartment off a microwave oven leaving the end of the waveguide open
to air - it could overload the amplifiers input stages even when the amp is
switched off!

(hint - use a very long extension cord!)
