Here's something I wrote during a math class or something. It's meant to be
viewed in 10 point courier, (written on a mac, but It doesn't matter). Maximize
the window, for proper viewing.

By the way, if you know of an existing box with this name, tell me, in order to
avoid confusion.

 ---------------------[ PHUN WITH INTERFERENCE ]------------------

I was sitting in physics class, and I began skimming through my "Conceptual
Physics" textbook. Well, I figured it would be interesting to read about waves.
So I got to the section about interference, and I started thinking...

Later, in math class, I began typing out this phile on my laptop.

Well, anyway, interference is a source of great phun. It is highly underrated,
and rarely mentioned. This is the first of it's kind as far as I know.

 THE SATAN BOX 



 MATERIALS: 

 A REMOTE CONTROL CAR
 A SET OF SCREW DRIVERS
 10 ALLIGATOR CLAMPS
 AN OSCILLATOR, OR FREQUENCY ADJUSTER
 A PHONE
 PLENTY OF 9v BATTERIES
 PRIVACY

 PURPOSE:

 Have you ever wanted to piss off your parents, or sister; etc.? Have you ever
wanted
get out of a goddamned phonecall but your grandparents won't shut the hell up?
Have you
ever felt the need to screw with someones head? Well, here is the key. *THE
SATAN BOX*.

 PRINCIPLES:

 Well basically, we all know that transmitters, cellphones, radiostations,
police scanners,
and such cause interference. Well on that basic premise, I designed the satan
box. By adjusting
the frequency of the wave  being transmitted, you are able to change the pitch
and sometimes
signal of your interference. The fact is, you have a little ball of static you
want to
throw at a phone or radio. So you, well, do. ;)

 STEPS:

 1. Unscrew your R/C Car Controller, and remove the chip, the transmitter, the
antennae
and everything you need to recreate the remote. 

 2. Then take apart an old stereo, or a radio, maybe even a walkman. Remove the
oscillator.

oscillators look like this:

 _____.._____
((((((()))))))
    |    |
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
|            |
|            |
|____________|

 3. remove the antennae and put the oscillator between it, in a way that
adjusts the frequency
 (may vary from the materials)
 

(((( o ))))
     |a
     |n
     |t.        -+-
     |  ______[ OSC.]______[board]
    | |/
   ---------------

 4. Next, hook up as many 9v batteries as possible (see diagram)

              (+)-(+)-(+)-(+)-(+)----------I/O(+)|...remote
      --------(-)-(-)-(-)-(-)-(-)     _____I/O(-)|...control
    /                                /
    \_______________________________/
   

 5. There you go. You have a satan box. Really easy, to be honest.

   batts.
     \ \                o
      | |               | <---- antenna
      + -               |
      i/o               |
     board------osc-----_


HOW TO USE:

  Pick a target. A good target would be a relative. When they are on a phone
(preferable cordless), press the switches on the board.

      switches probably look something like this:
   
            ______   <------press down
         __/      ' 
       xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Their should be a signal being emmitted from the box. You will know by how
pissed off your target is. ;). 

In order to adjust the signal's frequency and strength, play with the
oscillator.
        
PHONES THAT HAVE WORKED:

       CORDLESS PHONE 900MHz
       Old Bell Pushbutton cordphone
       TIME life phone (AT&T)

RADIOS THAT HAVE WORKED:

       WALKMAN
       VARIOUS OTHERS


INTERCEPTION:

 It is possible to intercept calls and police frequencies by turning on the
satan box, without transmitting. If your'e lucky, you get police frequencies,
radio stations, and of course... cellphones.

PART II: "UNDERSTANDING INTERFERENCE"

MATERIALS:

TI-86 CALC or 85
BASIC KNOWLEDGE OF THE CALCULATOR
AN UNDERSTANG OF TI-86 BASIC

WHAT IS THE POINT:

 The reason you want to understand interference is that the only way to know
how to cause it, is to know how it works.

HOW TO DO IT:

 Well, create a new program. Title it interference. Enter source code.

TWO DIFFERENT PROGRAMS:

PICTOGRAPHIC) this one just draws a picture of a chaotic day (wave wise).
INTERACTWAVE) this one let's you adjust coordinates

ABOUT THESE PROGRAMS AND INTERFERENCE COMPREHENSION:

These programs will illustrate longitudinal waves, and will show were they
overlap. The overlapping are is the "standing wave". It is the interference.
Sometimes, depending on the wave, they interference will block the
transmission, causing a lapse in sound. Other times you will hear the static
noise chime in over the transmission.

PART III: "THE INTERFERENCE IS ABROAD"

Look around your house. You might not have given it much thought, but an
arsenal of radiowave weapons are at you fingertips.

KNOWN INTERFERENCE CAUSING OBJECTS:       KNOWN OBJECTS SUSCEPTIBLE TO PHUN:
*walkie talkies                           *phones
*ham radios                               *radios
*remote control cars                      *tvs
*cordless phones                          *shortwave rads.
*radiation (microwave)                  
*shortwave radios
*police radios

ON A SIDE NOTE, SOME ANIMALS (IE: DOGS) CAN PICK UP THESE INSANE FREQUENCIES.
HEHE, PHUN WITH FIDO.
