Post by thread:Re : How to Stop cellular phones ? WAOUUUU !

Hi, Thanks for all answers. I didn't know when I asked for stopping cellular phone that it become a major subject on piclist ! A lot of interesting answers, conduct me to precise things : - It's for France country : so we are not under FCC control. Jamming is tolerate if emission stay in the building. - Some of you proposed to forbid usage of cellular phone in hospital or others building (theater...) : again I'm in France and peoples don't respect rules. "the real problems are stupidity, lack of understanding/courtesy" (thanks mark). Some young stupid people, think to be 'in" or (for joking) american like! - Problem is not interfering with medical equipment. Just to respect sleep and tranquility. - Someone reported to me that he saw a message on cellular's LCD "blocked : forbidden usage". I was in a hospital for old people (old people's home) when I heard ringings of telephone. Theses ringings disturbed everyone, including the nurses. The choice of the ringings did not have anything discrete. I thus thought of studying something. Thanks for opinions and I you have an idea, do not hesitate! Dan.

I can guarantee you that one of the following French network operators will 'frown' on your device : Bouygues Telecom (GSM 1800) France Telecom Itineris SFR > - Some of you proposed to forbid usage of cellular phone in hospital or others > building (theater...) : again I'm in France and peoples don't respect rules. I think you will find the converse when it comes to radio frequencies.... > "the real problems are stupidity, lack of understanding/courtesy" (thanks > mark).

As it is, GSM devices are not particularly welcome when it comes to life-supporting equipment due to the modulation (TDMA, FDMA, CDMA etc), but as long as you are not close to such a medical machine, no-one will be endangered. If, on the other hand, you decide to build a device with enough output power and frequency spread to jam all GSM phones in the hospital, you may just end up giving a patient in intensive care permanent 'sleep' and 'tranquility' when they die. If you just want to fool around at home or in a restaurant or so, go ahead, but keep in mind that the more effective your jammer becomes, the bigger the lawsuit against you can be... If my kid had to die because of some jammer that a prankster had built, I'd sue his ass all the way down. -- Friendly Regards /"\ \ / Tjaart van der Walt X ASCII RIBBON CAMPAIGN spam_OUTtjaartTakeThisOuTwasp.co.za / \ AGAINST HTML MAIL |--------------------------------------------------| | WASP International | |R&D Engineer : GSM peripheral services development| |--------------------------------------------------| |SMS .....tjaartKILLspam@spam@sms.wasp.co.za (160 chars max)| | http://www.wasp.co.za/~tjaart/index.html | |Voice: +27-(0)11-622-8686 Fax: +27-(0)11-622-8973| | WGS-84 : 26¡10.52'S 28¡06.19'E | |--------------------------------------------------|
