Interfering with noisy neighbour's music

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

Smith & Wesson has the answer to your problem.

I was going to go this route a few years back;
suggest you get a tranciever..
Powerful helps..
make a wierd tape,
put it on a tape loop
pump it into the transciever.
put the antenna Under or near where you think his hi fi is
Turn the transciever & tape on,

it'll be picked up by his amp or whatever..
& blast out his speakers,
ruining his music..

I had a Ham radio operator in the Apt next to mine, & when I'd be listening to
music it'd be interrupted with

" BREAKER BREAKER ! ! ! "- & obnoxious one way broadcasts

You could make a tape of Noxious commercials
Music that he hates
( Classical is very useful for driving Rap fans nuts )

Keep a log of this stuff if you can.
Noise cancelling earphones, help some..

- So do lawyers to SUE HIM !

If all else fails, build an interior room in which to sleep...

Unfortunately I'm based in the UK, so neither of those works for
me :(




Unless the loud music only comes from the radio, a radio attack won't be
much help. It should be easy enough to figure when he wants to sleep. Put
some speakers outside and play what annoying stuff you have. "TV Set" by
the Cramps, on an endless loop, would be a good choice.

This is exactly what my OM did in a similar situation. He played his music
(which was radically different than the neighbor's preference) very loud at
a time that would disturb the neighbor. When the neighbor asked why, he
explained why and the neighbor kept it down after that.

I can guarantee that a HAM would not be transmitting BREAKER BREAKER.

The OF's on the list will surely remember how effective Model T Ford spark
coils were for this task

I later discovered that the 455 KHz oscillator in particular was
amazingly effective in jamming other radios in the neighborhood,
especially if they were inexpensive models. Power line conduction of
signals at the IF frequency is a truly devastating way to jam local
receivers.

A few years ago, my neighbors has a damn little yappy dog. I was working
nights, and they'd leave their damn little yappy dog outside almost every
day. YAP! YAP! YAP! Anything would set that dog off. I complained a few
times, and the neighbors were apologetic and kept their damn little yappy
dog inside. For a few days. Then they'd leave him out for longer and
longer periods of time. In a couple of weeks he'd be out all day again.
YAP! YAP! YAP! YAP! I wanted to record the dog and start a long playing
tape around midnight. He'd be yapping at himself till dawn. Maybe
ultrasonics would set that dog off even better. I never got around to it.
I've since moved, although the move had nothing to do with the dog.

Just an FYI, Amateur Radio (Ham) operators don't ever say "BREAKER
BREAKER ! ! !" and can't (legally) make one-way broadcasts, obnoxious or
otherwise.
You must have had a CB'er neighbor :-).
