Noisy Neighbour
I have a noisy that has no respect for people. He has mixing decks
which he plays all the time which you can hear through the wall. I have researched ways of interfering with his stereo and came across many web sites stating that cb can affect stereo speakers. I know this isn't really the group to ask this, but has anyone suggestions on how to interfere with his stereo speakers as he is starting to really get on my nerves. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks |

Hello, Dude
Many areas have enacted ordinances which allow the local police to ticket CBs which cause interference, so you might wish to reconsider. The problem is, of course, that the speaker wires can pick up radiation and conduct it back into the audio system which can then rectify (detect) the signal, amplify it, and send it back to the speakers. To avoid interference, it would be best to have an outdoor antenna, oriented vertically. The reasoning is that most of the speaker wires will be run horizontally. Should you run a horizontal dipole (bent, if necessary), especially around the floor of your apartment/condo, the chances would be great that you would interfere with his stereo - a *lot*. Of course, you wouldn't want such a dipole right on the wall next to his unit. A stock cb would likely wreck havoc to his stereo if fed into two 9 foot lengths of wire (a dipole) run along the wall between your units, so don't do that. Of course, if you ever had any interference problems, you'd be better off running ssb. It will interfere as much, but your voice won't be recognizable. Hopefully, you wouldn't do something like that. I had a problem a couple of years ago. A 500 watt entertainment center plus 250 watt subwofer went a long ways to curing the problem. That, plus recordings of "The Thunderer", "Washington Post March", "The Stars and Stripes Forever", and a whole lot of other marches burned onto a cd can work wonders. :)) Hope this helps!

Oh, don't turn your power mic up full blast and disconnect the ground from you coax either. ... and be sure not to buy a small 12v mobile linear amplifier, that runs best on a battery charger with no battery. g Good advice, Jim..hope he never moves in next to me. |

"I Am Not George" wrote in message m... thanks for condoning rf interference to a neigbors stereo and not having the guts to own up to it surely the guy will find out its a cb and surly he will come knocking on dudes door and then their will be an ass kicking and it will be your fault Jim. or some other cber will be blamed for it. your solution is typical key clown thinking, low down and dirty like Steveo harassing leland at his home while keeping his ID hidden etc. In the UK there are police just like here all it takes is a polite visit to the guy and ask him to turn down his music if he doesnt respond then get the police to remind him, case closed. To be honest, it is the way most audio equipment has been manufactured (although this may have improved in the 8 years since I worked in an EMC lab). Under one test, we destroyed a monitor (as in computer monitor) with only 3 V/M unmodulated carrier! This kind of junk couldn't be sold in Europe at that time. Of course, we've cheapened everything and have the manufacturing largely in China using only the minimum component count necessary to make the equipment work. BTW, the 3 V/M was around 220 MHz. A typical cell phone will hit your noggin with about 60 V/M. I had to assume that he had already tried "nice" channels; besides, I believe I told him to avoid that horizontal dipole located next to the problem unit. ;) Perhaps I am wrong in the above assumption, but around here folks will park in front of your driveway and just don't care. About the only thing to get the police involved is if they hear a gunshot in the background when you call them. I'm sure you think I am exaggerating, but, unfortunately, I am not. One murder last night; another two days ago. Folks park where no parking is permitted (and busses can't get through). So, I was going by the assumption that the gentleman had no luck using proper channels; my suggestion was a *big* stereo with appropriate recordings that most might find irritating if played over and over. I still *love* Sousa! Uh, Stevo keeps his id hidden? I'll have to check; the posts I've seen from him do not have his id hidden. Then again, it may just be my imagination.

Dogie even had the sack to email me a warning that they had 'my finger prints on the note that I stuck under Nad's door'. Did anyone ever ask Leland what my note said? I've also been the Nascar driver who is somewhat brain-dead, so I can understand that comparison, but he doesn't have an s in his last name ....it gets confusing. |

He's running in the Craftsman Truck Series now and doing a little better than he was in the cup car. He used to be a pretty good driver till he had a really bad wreck and head injury. You can hear it in his speech now. I can't afford to crush my sheet metal. That involves paint and cha$$is on them old hot rods. |
