Armed with a M-72? ;-)

Not 'magnetic'. Electromagnetic.

I picked these numbers off a nomograph so they are approximate:

Frequency: 40 GHz <-- Yes 10 GHz was too low
Parabola Diameter: 0.33 meters
Gain: 39.8 db at 50% efficiency
3 db Beamwidth: 1.65 degrees

The HP DRT1-3813 outputs 79 mW at 40 GHz.
That should be good for 9.5 W ERP, yes?

That's about 9 mW into the customer's noggin at a distance
of 1.35 meters or less.

This is quite sufficient, yes?

I know the effect works and you feel it would not.
Let's agree to disagree on this point.

And I think you've decided to keep your mind closed.

Thank you for your thoughts, Bill

Earth. You?

On your planet do any lawsuits proceed without
any evidence that anyone violated any law?

Must be a funny place. :)

Where are they now?

You do understand that many of these folks are now 'dead men walking'
as a result of their whistleblowing?

Thanks for your thoughts.

Not *everyone* will be targeted. The system might not be used
for several days on end.

I might not have mentioned this, but:

"No collapses. Just frozen with temporary blindness and deafness.
See, we are overwhelming a very complicated system with
a bunch of 'nonsense data'. It is a 'Denial Of Service'
attack, with the brain as a target instead of a computer."

The whole thing is over within a minute or two. The beauty is
that our target is very likely to be technically unsophisticated
and will downplay their nap because they will never guess what
really happened.

1) What data set of 'servo controlled microwave booby traps' did you
draw that conclusion from? Do you have links, please?

2) How could he be sitting in his office above the dining floor and
simultaneously standing in front of the cash register?

Thanks for your thoughts, AZ.
