Would anyone have a circuit, or know where to find one, for the Conelrad
device as marketed by Motorola and Heathkit.


Monumental failure? Easy conclusion, evidently. However there are still
WMD's pointed
at us, and we still have them pointed at others. Of course CONELRAD is not
an effective scheme any longer, but when WMD's traveled by airplane, and
came from
known geographical spots, CONELRAD was a pretty effective at denying
precision
target identification using simple navigation instruments.
I was always dismayed by having to have our radio or TV turned up so
loud that
it could be heard back in the hall closet that was my "shack". When Wife was
home, the
volume could be turned down, and she was to tell me if the station went off
the air.
(and it did, occasionally, sending a little chill, until determining that it
was not an alert,
but a "technical problem")
