Default The capacity hat?

Google turned up quite a few hits, but most of them were useless for
describing how a capactive hat works. So, I picked out what I
considered to be the better pages. I also looked at Google Images for
decent photos, which is where I found the W8UZZ collection.

Incidentally, I'm only 5ft 5in tall, so I wear a capacitive hat on my
head so that I can act like the big guys.

Yeah, but they are too big to wear:

Although they haven't heard any alien broadcasts, they do quite well
at sharpening razor blades.
