wrote: It may be a fine project which will produce the goods, but let's look at the way you've brought it he - you wanted help to get up a truck-mounted transmitted to over-ride all AM/FM communications in an area. You wanted to drive the truck at up to 70mph through a disaster/emergency area, for no adequately explained reason (the RF is going for a mile or two outside the area, so why drive the truck?). You got told why it's impractical as described. - you suddenly changed it to a loco mounted project. You struck gold on this one as there are people here who clearly have industry experience. You're not poo-poo'ing their skepticism, but certainly not fazed (may not be a bad thing....). Why not pour the funds into controlling all these uncontrolled level crossings instead of producing a 'box' to go on every loco that may drive through the US? It struck me from the very beginning as a solution looking for a problem. -- LRod Master Woodbutcher and seasoned termite Shamelessly whoring my website since 1999 http://www.woodbutcher.net Proud participant of rec.woodworking since February, 1997 |

problem.. Hummmm...I haven't read any of this thread, and after seeing the initial page, decided it wasn't worth my time..."Not related to any certain post". I was just curious , as the thread title started to remind me of a old "Jethro Tull" song... Resume... MK |

Is this guy done, now?
"Ari Silversteinn" wrote in message ... DHS has proposed a change in scenario. They want an on locomotive alerting system that could be commandeered and driven at, near or about a disaster site. Everything else stays more or less the same, overbroadcasting on local AM/FM, power off the locomotive, selective or full frequency broadcasting, train (s) to be in motion at all times. 20-30 second messages that would also combine a message to be aware that a locomotive (at speed) will be flying by the at grade crossings. Comments? -- Drop the alphabet for email |

Uh, and neither are you (as if headers proved anything) Hi Ossama, Hard to validate yourself when you approach us an anonymous poster (anyone can use anything as a signature). Problem there is I can pin any name to you, and you couldn't prove it otherwise - can you? ;-) still lookin' for ya' Uncle Sam |
