Fry?...don't think so. However, take a look at this:

FYI- there is a system already fielded for 20 years, that does fry
electronics, military uses it.

Yes, "fry". Did you guys see the 60 minutes piece some time ago about
some "inventor" who had a device to "fry" auto computers. Details were
sparce, but clearly seemed to be some kind of cross between a tesla
coil and a microwave pulser. He stopped a running car at some
distance (cheated by having hood up).

The point is that any solid state device always has a bunch of semi-
conductors that follow the rule: Semiconductor parts make better fuses
than fuses! Usually most solid state circuit boards have some of
these are low voltage parts that can't take much emi.

I wouldn't be surprised if cops had emi car stoppers right now. Sure
beats a 100 MPH chase or those tire spikes that could send a 100 MPH
car into a neighborhood house. I have also heard rumors that all
modern car computers have "secret" codes that can be transmitted into
them that stops them. Wouldn't surprise me a bit.


It would me, a lot! CNN wouldn't get its jollies by covering "high-
speed" chases (e.g.. OJ).

Par a noid.
