NOW you have done it! Roger is dribbling in his depends. You have flared up
his rampant case of IBS and he is going to forward your post to the FBI as
soon as he wakes from his nap....Eddie

For what it's worth, intercepting the radio at drive thru eateries is NOT
new. I remember it going on over 7 years ago. For the most part it's a
frickin riot! Carl's Jr. implimented a company directive to dispatch ALL
non-essential employees to the parking lot ASAP when an "attack" occured.
They were directed to look for vehicles with *BIG ANTENNAS* on them and
demand ID from the occupants. Now from what *I* remember...1/4 wave
antennas
on 467Mhz are 5.75" and 154.570 are about 18"...HARDLY big antennas. The
*LAST* thing I'm going to do is co-operate with some goomber's request to
ID
myself at a fast-food place, more likely to shoot him.
When the RF pranksters hit, the back door looked more like someone had
called the I.N.S. hahahaha.
For all the times I ordered a burger with no sauce and got extra sauce,
for
the times I ordered chicken McNuggets and got some other crap
this is VERY funny revenge.
Try listening to these dumb-****s on thier "talk-around" channel..this is
where they chat among themselves and NOT the window. Comments like " check
out that piece of **** he is driving" or "that woman is a real
beefarillo".It's like a teen-age partyline. The fools don't realize that
people DO listen to their channel, mostly in disbelief. The management
could
listen and see whats going on, if they do it's apparant that they don't
really care.
Places that run a "tight ship" really show, no screwing around, orders get
filled fast and RIGHT. The ones that are run by "Bozos" will be treated
like
"Bozos". If they are clowning around, why not the pranksters?
Some tips to getting away with RF pranking......
HIDE THE TRANSCEIVER...put it in a bag or jacket pocket.
USE A REMOTE MIKE...keep mike in the palm of your hand out of sight.
SIT IN NEIGHBORING BIZ....they won't go into another place to look for you
in there.
USE HEADPHONES IF OUTDOORS....make it look like your listening to a
walkman.

RUN MAX POWER...high power(5-25 watts) causes the signal to bounce off all
kinds of ****. Damn near impossible to get a direction unless the hunter
has
a damn good attenuator and a shielded RCVR. they will be chasing their
tail.
TELL THEM WHY THEY ARE GETTING TRASHED...this is important, tell them your
tired of getting **** and not your order, or it's cold when you get it, or
the place is a pig-stye. People just don't "attack" because of no reason,
your doing them because you dont like the place for one reason or another.
The owner might take notice and correct the wrong-doings!! Would'nt you if
it was your KFC or Taco-Bell?

You are right. This is nothing new but it is still fun.
For a twist on this, I once discovered that the local Baptist Church had
purchased several VHF HT's that worked on 154.570 and had no PLs. They
would
station two volunteers in the parking lot during services to act as
security
guards and the Pastor had another rig to keep in touch with the outside
men.
Now, just for conversation sake, what if a certain somebody played an
adult-type .wav file over the frequency? The Pastor scrambled for his
radio
to shut it off and for a while actually thought one of his own men was
playing the sounds. They stopped using the radios shortly after.
And then there are those popular baby monitors that new parents like to
place in the kids' room. They don't realize that these low power units
transmit 24/7 and further, mom and dad don't realize that their love
making
can also be transmitted. All it takes is for one enterprising person to
pick
up the mic on a modified radio and say, "Hey, Dad! Stop hurting my mom!"
Poor dad can quickly lose his erection and the rest of the night is shot.
There are many other possibilities and your imagination is the limit.
You don't spose the FBI will be interested in someone who transmits on
baby
monitor frequencies, do you? Roger says they are....and Roger is gonna
forward these posts to Elliot Ness.
I will now live in fear of wannabe cop Roger for the rest of my days.
