RE::... CAVER...

I just found this forum a few minutes ago and ive been skimming through the articals everyone has been posting. anyhow, heres a little something to stimulate your mind.
I have one of those RC Microsizers that I myself have been playing around with. only, My results are quite a bit drastic.
my "Tiny" Microsizer now has a range of 30 feet.
Heres what i did...
I used the almighty 555 timer IC and some simple circuitry consisting of 6 transistors, 4 capacitors, 5 resistors and a voltage to frequency IC.
The 555 timer is used as a tuned frequency oscillator which works with the VTF IC. this itself creates an energy sucking antenna only it receives the signals, converts them to a voltage, and now with a couple of transistors and capacitors creating another oscillator, gets converted back into a much stronger amplified signal outputting to the factory installed antenna on the cars circuit board.
One thing that ive noticed is...
None of you are thinking of how radio signals work.
Any type of coil or resistant metal carries a frequency. Im sure youve all heard of power lines emitting small amounts of radio frequency, sometimes giving people tumors, cancer and so fourth.
Anyhow, the motor inside your cars obviousally contain a coil which revolves inside the motor within a magnet. This creates a what i like to call "Static interference". The Heat sink/motor casing is metal also touching the motor therefore carrying this static frequency. IT IS WISE TO KEEP YOUR ANTENNA AWAY FROM THE MOTOR AND MOTOR CASING.
Just food for thought.........
