Speaking of "weird" at the BuyMore, I had jury-rigged the Home Theater satellite receiver into Bartowski's Cantenna (http://www.cantenna.com/) and then cross-linked the input to a home-brew spectrum analyzer (http://www.nitehawk.com/rasmit/sa50.html); when I saw ghosting in the 2.1 gigHz spectrum. Like somebody was aiming a radar antenna on the break room's microwave oven frequency? What's with that? Somebody wants to turn the BuyMore into a bag of microwave popcorn? And NO, I didn't tell chuck I was using his stuff. No I didn't and why should I? After filtering the 2.1 gig for the ghosting, I noticed there are actual "tv" like images. Some woman in a military uniform. but the picture was so fuzzy I couldn't really make it out. A lot like slow-scan TV when the dipoles vibrate from high winds aloft, or the sun spots fail.

Did anybody see my copy of the Blaster's Manual? I had some notes about the proper temperature for glycerin when you add the nitric acid to it. It's kinda critical to keep the mixture cool or it's goes nukeular in a hurry!
