When I was a teenager and my brothers started bothering me with their loud
TV, I took a 220V relay, put one of the coil leads through its normally
closed contact group, and plugged the relay into the mains behind the wall
where the TV was. Made an exelent TVI/RFI generator, I thought the TV is
going to blow up.

Hi all -

After my first thread going from "standard" cheap parts for up to vhf
frequency to a discussion about the usefulness of Spice simulator...... I
try it another time hopefully get attention of frustrated co-readers:

For example the rechtifier diode 1N4007 can be used as a rf switching
diode,
for example as rx/tx-switch. This is because it is a pin structure diode.
This type is cheap and you can get it almost everywhere. It shows good
performance for the price. Surely for high-end you should do it with
another
type tuned to the application it is made for. But anyway it works in some
circuits.

Do you know of other interesting devices or circuits good for misuse?

Best regards -
Henry
