Really simple solution....go to the power pole, get out a set of garden
shears and cut ONLY the neutral wire to the house, sit back and watch the
fireworks display as things that should get 120 volts get about 20 and
things that should get 120 get about 200. The refridgerator motor will stall
and the stereo should erupt in a ball of fire
You see...household wiring is 2 phase..thats two legs of 120 and a common
neutral return. When you cut it the loads unballance, putting some things
like heavy items (fridge) and light items (stereo) in series across 240
volts.....SPECTACTULAR!
One minor problem...CAN result in multiple fires...use with caution....Eddie

I have a neighbour who drives me beserk by playing loud music at
all hours and just shouts abuse when I ask him to stop. I'm
currently going through the long and tedious route of
complaining to the local Environmental Health people but that
doesn't stop the noise in the meantime.

I found an old post on Google which claimed that a shortwave
transceiver and a power amplifier could be used to create
interference, distorting the neighbour's music so he turns it
off. It sounds very tempting.

Would this method work if he was just using his hifi to play a
CD? I'm not sure if it's supposed to work by interfering with
his speakers or his radio reception.

Thanks in advance for any comments
