You do understand that the victims will not complain because they will never see any evidence that the transmitter even exists, yes? What will they have to complain about? There will be no evidence. (I may have forgotten to make that point.) Evidence. <-- The victims will never see it. > And when Mr FBI asks the store > manager what happened, such is his loyalty to the corporation that said > manager will happily go to prison for obstructing the investigation. Mr. FBI will never be involved. No crimes will be committed because no law enforcement agency will ever be equipped to detect the transmitter. Even if you grabbed Eliot Ness by the collar, lifted a drop ceiling panel and smacked a yardstick on the rim of the parabolic antenna: 1) He is not going to "officially" know what he's looking at. 2) If he does eventually understand what he is looking at, he can reasonably point out that there is no law against that gear in that place and that there is no evidence that it was used illegitimately. 3) He may reasonably point out the lack of case law defining microwave attack as 'assault'. 4) If pressed he will point out that the restaurant owner has every right to defend himself against armed robbers. This will not be just an 'uphill battle' for honest targets. It will be impossible for them because no one will ever understand that the transmitter is in place and being used immorally. > Anyway, the whole scheme of yours is just totally ludicrous from > technical, legal and logistical points of view. How so? Technically, a slightly larger antenna, higher carrier frequency and a good sized amplifier are the changes needed to my original outline. Dare I mention that multiple transmitters could provide excellent coverage? Legally, there is no prohibition against burning someone with a microwave beam (for example). It is not considered assault and perhaps never will be. For grins just now, I Googled ("case law" "microwave burn" assault) Got zero hits. That string is so unusual that it didn't even show up in any 'word salad' harvesting site. Logistically, a facilities installer working for cash on the side could get a packaged system up and running within a couple hours after arrival. > A total non-starter.

I would never do that because the transmitter will represent the darkest side of human thought. But mostly I feel that 'sunlight is the best disinfectant'. Thanks for your thoughts. --Winston
