Live 365 You read about the current news in a regulated press and you pay attacks you do not owe to please the IRS Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold you trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame You've taken Satan's number You've traded in your name You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist from whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each God given right we only watching tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Is this still the land of the free good? I just had some help here good afternoon ladies and gentlemen this is the second hour of the afternoon intelligence report time are quirky one-day court victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines and occupied territories southwest and nor all of these gentlemen you're listening to us on libertytreeradio.4mg.com, pbn.4mg.com, and we're on live 365. Then go to libertytreeradio.com. You will also find us on AM&FM microstations, CB Bay stations, and alternate technologies both east and west of the Mississippi, along with southern and central Alaska. You'll find us on the Hallmark Network on the Eastern Seaboard. From the top of Maine where the black bears, it's Tuesday so they know it's fish day at the Ollie Caneat place. They're waiting for the garbage truck to show up so they can roll around in them smelly fish bones and ooh, have that special girly bear perfume they need. Well, to attract the girly bears anyway. Then all the way down to the bottom of Florida where we have the belly button contemplating little fiddler crabs, legions of them going. If you ever heard of 1000 or 10,000 or 40,000 Fiddler crabs when they're all going, it has a very unique sound. If you haven't done that yet, track some down, check them out. It's really cool. Anyway, then across the ark of the Gulf of Mexico, the doomed wasteland where only skeletons live in all of the cities, the beaches are absolutely dead. The carcasses of all of the fish life of the planet are washing up in little tiny bone sludge piles that have been eaten by the toxins in the oil. Also by the material that was added by man to the oil. We're all dead. There are no people down in the Gulf of Mexico I'm talking to anymore. You're all gone. And across to Texas, of course. Louisiana wouldn't count because even though they have the big toilet flushing, there's fresh water. We're not supposed to think about that. Then up to Oklahoma, where they're still pumping lots of oil there. All the way to Nebraska, where the, well, many elements are working diligently to fill in the blanks, because there's a lot of gaps in Nebraska, but that's because of the nature of how people are spread out. We know how that works. Then over to the 3rd of Wyoming, back over to Iowa, and across Iowa too. Baaawww! Way over to the other side of the Mississippi River, and we've got to leap over that, and then get to the Blue Ridge, and slash the Smokies where? The Golden Spike project is in place. Congratulations, guys. You did break the bank, so to speak. They broke the numbers, I think by another about 60 or so. A little higher than that, 62, 63. I don't know what the exact number is, but they broke records. New consortium, new people coming in representing other areas of the country, other parts of like Virginia and also North Carolina. And I understand East Tennessee. Congratulations. There were a lot of people there, but this is other work and new companies and businesses that have now joined the alliance against the bad guys, which is a good thing. So congratulations. Of course, you just meant more work for the cooks. See, I don't forget you guys. What is it that makes things happen? There's a lot of people behind the scenes who want to say thank you again to all the people doing their part. We greatly appreciate what it is you've been doing and what you've put up with. Yeah, I know. Last minute calls for food when it's all been done the beginning of the week and you'd all be sitting back for part of the weekend. Nah, you don't. Because you work all weekend too. We know how it is. Anyway, it is a beautiful, it's been a sunshiny day. We really haven't had any We've had the edge of cloudy looking like it might be kind of rainy stuff today, but for the most part it's been a classic summer day. I'll bet this ain't been a dry summer. We've been moist. Not super moist, but we've been moist enough that nothing's turned brown brown yet. The hay came in just enough. There was lots of sun. They're really happy. We got major production on both the hay and the straw this year. Congratulations to the farmers. The trucks, in fact, the stuff was perfectly balanced. Timing is everything. So got it in just after the rain. Cut after the rain. Three or four days where we got just the perfect enough to cook it out. And then they bailed her up in one day thinking, oh my god, the rain's coming. Well, guess what? It didn't happen. So they got the risk. All the hay and wheat, and forgive me, all the hay and straw got it in record time. I think it's rather funny, only in that it's like, well, I guess that gives you some more time to vacation for the rest of the week. Now there's always something more to do on the farm. Anyway, it is a beautiful 10th of August, second year of Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist occupation of America with a K. And don't you forget it, because it's continuing just as we expected. Oh my goodness. Now this communication is Tuesday and while I mentioned in the last hour we talked about transportation security officer when you're operating in the field. Another thing that needs to happen is you need a couple of radio geeks to be designated. In fact you're the radio geek designate. How's that sound? If you're going to be tactically in the field you need to take a old, in fact I just looked at something that would be perfect there. It's a padded transport case. It was for something totally different from what we're going to propose being used for. watch for cases or briefcases being thrown out other people want to get rid of you don't care how pretty they are now side they can be old final briefcases they can be small suitcases That's right the other they are the least likely anybody gonna touch them or steal them in fact if it looked icky They might not even want to touch it for fear the catch a disease now We don't want them quite that bad, but here's the thing whatever color it is You don't like you know like that puke II that baby baby feces brown that was real popular in the 70s Pretty good camouflage pattern really for out West releases closer to the color use colors you'll find in the field But let me give you a little hint let's say that you have a whole bunch of baggage like that Let's go down to this hardware. We're going to go inside. We're stepping inside and we go, oh, it's a miracle. Hardware is set of all kinds of things. Isn't it amazing? And when we go over into the paint department now, even Wally World, but also your hardware, you will find that we have a need today to fix plastic lawn furniture. All the miracles of paint. Today we have paints that will without any super preparation effectively cover and bond with vinyl or plastic. No way! And you know what? When I look on the shelf as I mentioned in the last hour, amazingly enough guys, all of these colors that they're offering in the lawn furniture are also tactical camouflage covers. Way! Yes, way in fact look at it. You've got even like that forest green shade, which is kind of dark, but not quite black Which is good really? medium green olive green Sand pan earth brown and even a little white if you want it So you can rather than going to the white, you can go with a tan to do the fine white streaky liney thingies that you want. If you're doing a woodland pattern, instead of black black, you can go dark green. So it blends with different terrain, but still offers a nice dark shade. And lo and behold, any of the luggage that you pick up, you can make that whatever color you want. But specifically, you can camo pattern it out, or you can all make it the same tactical color. Your choice. What? So in other words, all this luggage that people are throwing away becomes awfully handy. Now why did Mark bring luggage up? We were talking about radios. Yeah, well then I'm going to go over to one of these like office supplies if I want to, or I can go over to check out some of the transport companies where they ship stuff all the time. Ask them for some boxes that have waffle foam that's being thrown out. You can get that in hard impact foam or it's in the soft foam. We use it also for soundproofing to dampen sound in sound studios. Looks like little pyramids stacked side by side by side. Well, you take two of those and you are two chunks of those. Thicker is better depending on the thickness of the case that you chose. Old briefcase, old carry-on luggage. Now you've got a clamshell box you can put things in that's got foam padding so it will secure it. Now you want to get really fancy, you get real heavy thick gauge foam and you cut out the pattern of whatever you're going to store in it. That's another cool way. It looks like a James Bond movie then. But the problem is when you want to switch to something else or you have to switch out or you have to carry something else other than just what's cut out in the cookie cutter pattern, it becomes really obnoxious. So the foam star pattern is a good choice. You can come up with little sub dividers and use Velcro on the inside like on the camera transport boxes to create variable little chambers if you want to and then put the foam padding with the pyramids and that. There you go. Now what you have is a radio operators maintenance box or issue box. for your headset radios, your headset systems so that they're protected, they aren't just beat up in a box, you have to untangle them every time you want to use them. It shouldn't be like that at all. In fact, I'm going to go one step farther. Go to the dollar store, pick up a dollar's worth of the one gallon or two dollars worth of the one gallon Ziploc bags. Get up a couple dollars worth of the smaller Ziploc bags that are sandwich size. That's about as small as you need to go because that way you've got spares when you need them for other stuff that's bigger. Anyway, anything that's a headset goes inside a Ziploc bag and it gets numbered, number one, and then number two, and then number three, and then number four. And they're part of your utility storage system you're building up to protect the electronics from moisture and the environment in general, and dust, which is another issue. Now, the transport box, you have everything listed. Make a little sheet. Put all of your headsets in there. Put all your radio sets in there. Put all of your battery charger systems, your spare battery packs. Make up a Batman kit for your unit. Now, you can do this two ways. You can have all your eggs in one basket, or if you get a couple of the same carrier boxes, guess what? Make them all the same type. And put five of in one box, in one briefcase. 5 of everything in the next, 5 of everything in the third, 5 of everything in the... See how this works? Now, let's say that we have a squad going out. We might want to pick out three cans, three boxes. That way we have 15 radios total. Well, Mark, we only have 10 people going out. You just set a squad. Yeah. And it's almost always guaranteed that when you figure everything's going to go right, radio number 10 decides to go... or headset number four somebody decides to try and plug something in the find out somebody didn't report that it was broken the last time or they were busy they were to hurry i'm going somewhere i'm all gone out here with somebody else that worry about it hahaha well just in case you want to make sure that you have a spare packed with five more on hand what's the big deal self-contained only having to monitor three can three boxes now another thing about the individual boxes number of them also Number one, number two, number three, number four, number five. Or you can go A. That way it's A1, A2, A3, A4. You know, like A is the bag or the briefcase. And then you've got alpha, you know, A for the cap, forgive me, A for the box. And then numbers, one, two, three, four, five for the bag. So it's A1, A2, A3, A4, A5. There's an advantage to this so that you can keep track of maintenance. Minimal bureaucracy for maximum results. If you make up, and my God, with the computer the way it is today, guys, how long does it take for you to go, blah, blah, blah, click out a maintenance list. Actually, first, a service list. What do you have in the box? You should have five, Model 1, Mark II, Type 3 headsets, five transceivers, blah, blah, blah, five, you know, fill-in-the-bank radio packs, five, you know, carriers, five chargers, five, and a list, or two, or one, or six, or whatever each item is. that standard for the box now whenever you put everything back together if the obligation each person because otherwise somebody's wasting a whole lot of his personal time trying to straight everything out each person's job is to stop take the radio put it back into its middle disassemble it if there's like unplugged the headset plug everything you know put everything back in with the appropriate bag and make sure it gets back into the box Standard operating procedure. Mark doesn't have to tell you anything other than, well, we're going to use can number A. We're using can number, forgive me, letter A and letter B. Those two cans are going to be used. Now, if there's a problem, freeze and don't go dance around and I need this or I need that. That just creates confusion. Stop. Plug in your equipment. You're supposed to be a training professional. Check your gear to make sure your rig is up and online. Make sure you got power. One person, an alpha target or the first person to designate a fire team leader or squad leader is going to be listening and your job is to test out your radio set. Right there. Raise your hand. Okay, number two, ready to go. KWA359, radio check. Radio check. Radio check. Radio check confirmed. KWA359, we copy. There we go. Headset works, everything seems to work, plasma rifles working, heads up, optical display, oh wait a minute, that's all. We don't have that. We just got a radio headset system like an FM from Radio, you know, trash from Radio Shack. Whatever it is you're using, guys, come up with a standard handling procedure. The advantage, again, a radio geek designates his job or her job is to make sure that everybody's radio equipment is squared away. harden the equipment, armor it a little bit. There are all kinds of techniques there. Camouflage it, not a big deal. In fact, not that hard at all. Oh, and Mr. Plastic Paint is out there to help you guys. Remember that it doesn't even have to be super perfect. You want to make sure you don't paint over controls. You don't paint over reading LED lights or confirmation lights unless it's something that may cause tactical issues. And then you may tape it over or you may paint it over intentionally to make it disappear. If you're going tactical and you're supposed to be surreptitious, blinking or red LEDs exposed to the world are not going to help you to hide yourself when the time comes. In fact, it's going to be a shoot me target. We don't want that. So anyway, ideas. Transport boxes can be briefcases, light carry-on luggage, watch for a lot of it. Watch the resale shops, go to Red Shield, Purple Tulip, whatever you've got in the area, whatever your version of Salvation Army is that's out there, or resale shops. You'd be amazed what you find. You can also tell them, hey guys, I want cases like this. Well, we throw those away. great i'll tell you what i have to my give you a yelter the dollar for you know everyone you find your view five dollars for every ten years say that's better than nothing have the pay to have it all the way in the trash how does that sound anyway i hear a beat something made a caller yep we've got bob from michigan did anybody say geek yeah i don't want to do it but the best kind of geek the one you know people alive go ahead we got for so i got a suggestion um... some great ideas Your communication will not be necessarily line of sight, the VHF UHF, which is great. But here's an option for you, just real quick. Called an NVIS. It's a near vertical incident signal, basically, is what it is. And I had originally stumbled upon this when they used to put the HF antenna, okay, are almost, but what happens is, that you get a reflection off the ionosphere directly above your head and the resulting thing is a cone about 250 miles is a radius if you're going to draw a circle that is going to problem the trick is to take your basic type closer to the ground not pretty crazy but i'm here to tell you it's not only it's not quite surprised that i've used it myself several times of fifty seventy five watch on hf what's the other seventy five meter band forty meter band in there and you can have almost paid for your communications with them roughly all of the state two hundred three hundred mile radius if you're going to put a dot on the map where you are and there you are and it doesn't seem like it would work but trust me it does and they should point out one of the reason discovered this was not it wasn't an act well what an accident way what happens is somebody was playing with their king up their equipment They've already got the antennas stowed for quick motion, probably because they were getting tired and getting beat the snot out of when they're going through foliage. And lo and behold, somebody said, wait a minute, this shouldn't be working, but this is working really well. And let me give you a website. It's a radio club website. Athens ARC, all one word, dash in the VIF. And that should get you. The interesting thing is that in front of me, but I thought it was for you one of the reasons by the way and we people are wondering you know you guys think about it you can fact i think you're we're going to have a new video posted here uh... maybe tonight we'll see what happens and i've got some vehicle pictures of the m one five one four-month and you as you know that was an antenna master there was stuff every depending on which unit it was it it had with antennas everywhere guys freer and the m eight eighties radio trucks were the same way at four-point with antennas okay and each of the box Well, the problem is when they first came up with these, they were a great idea. I mean, obviously they worked better than most countries, but the thing is they were glass insulator-based. and everybody got tired of the fact that if you left everything up and you were trying to use it while going down the road and you found that one branch or tree that was just the right height, you were busy, you were doing maintenance because those little glass insulators at the base, which were actually very, very well made, weren't going to take that kind of shock. So everybody got tired of that idea, so it was real quick, I don't want to fix the radios this weekend. Do you, Hal? No, no, let's just take and run the antenna. and problem of line of sight with the vhf uhf now one of the other things real quick in the story on those arrest on the insulators what they did is eventually the donut of destruction figured out hey we need something more flexible so they did replace it and one of the reasons that that's still an issue is because a lot of guys who have surplus vehicles and they have m880s they may have cuckbee rat rigs they may have the 151 Ford months or the mighty mites Guys, a lot of your vehicles still have those glass insulators. So I just want to remind everybody before we leave that, that's something you've got to be careful of. There's a method to all madness. There's a purpose for all actions. Well, all this stuff is very usable, I'm sure. Oh, yeah. Like you said, Murphy's a lot. Basic rule. Assume the worst and you won't be disappointed. There you go. because as we know snap on that uh... group to help and all but nothing really find your for that wire that he was at that but bailing wire and and uh... bear very in the world of overget that well you know i'm not on this note to look at the experiment with this because we do have a lot of units that are still using pretty much all of the older equipment again people are going to go up the bullet magnet under certain conditions well the conditions were dealing with now especially for the type of deployments were looking at guys uh... the bad guys pretty will have an idea where everybody is numbers were prepared for the patrol okay this is just a border patrol which should be as opposed to the malfeasance going on because of what's happening in washington so a lot of our equipment here especially uh... can be actually put to use for what it was originally intended uh... safely and effectively now what the other thing about those but i don't want to on this but there's little sub note here on the glass insulators reason to bring it up Most guys have the glass insulators because obviously the non-breakable ones are more popular. So what happened is the breakable ones are dime a dozen. And while the guys certainly don't want to have to change them, and you shouldn't because you only make them last as long as you get a little common sense, you'll get them at work. They're about 10 to 1 price-wise. Oh yeah. The newer insulators are much more expensive. The older ones, which were in the ceramic, were very well made. They're top of the line for their day. GE, Rayathon, all kinds of companies made them, depending on which contract for what year during Vietnam or post-Vietnam. But because they were not the more popular, a lot of people, you know, the old story is habit. They were just all, oh, those are a lot of work. They work, in fact I know some of them have been on the vehicles for nigh on 15 years and as long as you know what you're doing and you remember that that's a problem, like anything else in maintenance you will operate accordingly. Another thing here with regard to this technique, now again they have pictures of the Germans using them or they were talking about where they photographed them. No, there's actual pictures of them being used in picture and then there's a blow off and you get a, you can kind of tell spulkiness of it back in. Some people had discovered be put in that searches patrick gibbons this is the lady that actually incredible photograph of uh... of actual setup so that he offered growl of attenuation of up negative forty b inches over twenty dv though if you get that cut man impact will be said bell or mushroom think more like uh... almost the same kind of signal rate that we get we know the final solution we get without them and that we're going to see a greater development and then we're going to see a drop off very quickly beyond whatever the energy that you put into the antenna, whatever can be fully transmitted to the antenna is going to be translated into the signal range. and then it's going to drop off right there in that perimeter, only that perimeter, because that's how you're going to be experiencing BHF UHF. You're not going to see a lot of excessive wash over into, say, other radio grids. That's a lot of range for us to do. for a tactical radio where in a situation we might need that, something to think about, especially if we switch out and go to combat tactical operations where all of a sudden you may need to call in assistance, you may not be able to use another part of the radio grid to get to the sister units that are in the field, the other family of, say, another area of control. Well, like you said, you have to use your head. I mean, when that's useful, that's what you use. Just like you had said about directional Yagi antenna, Well, the one thing here too, and for everybody, and again, go ahead and give all the particulars as far as OK is Athens, A-R-C dot O-R-G, slash N-B-I-R. That's what I'm reading off A-T-H-E. Excellent. And now the other advantage here too, guys, is remember when we have to, we want to keep our signal minimal. If we're operating at the squad or the fire team and then also at the platoon level obviously. When we get into company and battalion we're looking at greater distances and especially if we are again looking at cooperation between formations, say battalion strength formations, we're stepping up into another range. We have to have a bridge for those distances. That's something that most people don't think about. One radio does not do everything in the military, despite what people perceive or see in Hollywood. There's a reason for all those other bells and whistles in the wall there. In other words, when you see a rat rig with a couple of operators. One man's job is to help sort out and control what's happening at a particular level or to monitor, not necessarily interfere, but to monitor to give timely information to a unit commander who's trying to make decisions. The other processes are so that in the outbound he is able to reach the other elements of his hand. Look at it this way, in a squad, oh let's go to fire team, fire team, five fingers guys, and a thumb. You're the thumb, four of the fingers participate. The squad is then two hands, boxing. Consider that then we have, oh that's right, four squads in a platoon and we may have a weapons section. At the very least we have four squads, they're the fingers, and then you have the command group, which is the LT in charge or the young captain in charge. Now we're going to the company. Wow, look at it again. We have the four fingers. We have the three infantry and we have a weapons platoon. We also have the command group. That becomes the thumb. That's the coordinator, the opposing grip that allows you to grasp something. When you go to battalion, it's the same way. You're looking at basically four companies and you're looking at a support element which is designed to be there, again, to be the eyes, ears, and the brain to get everything to move. So in each step, it still comes down to the hand. And we need to be able to communicate. We're going to have this radio communications, although it should be minimal. is the nervous system. It's able to get the brain, which is that man who has responsibility. He's signed for everything or you've all agreed to vote him into that position. He has perhaps the expertise, the experience, or whatever, but he's counting on all of his other arms and elements of support to allow him to get the job done right. And signal communications is critical in that respect. Because at a given point, when your position is known, here's the thing. There's going to come a point where you're going to have to throw the dice and you may have to do what we call burst transmission. You've got to get the signal out. Something's f***ing, it's a catastrophe. Something's happening where you need help now. And this is a method that will help to bridge that gap, break that distance. I hear another beep, somebody might have a call for you there, Bob. well but let me uh... step out when you can take other calls will return when you get a question for it when we have we have a patient listeners possibly anything else you know otherwise your old sentence with i think that that i just want to stir the pot a little bit excellent well it uh... back i'm gonna be jumping on this as soon as i can i'll put it up to the eight o'clock hour but uh... this is in line with something we're having a discussion about this weekend with regard to tactical communications we've got a mechanizing that here that's not too far away and on the very subject we were talking we were discussing You know, distances because of what happened like with Huttari. We have mechanized units, you know, I guess I'll say this, we have mechanized units all around where that took place. Of any place where the idiots could have started something had everybody, and somebody just saw that it looked like their mom was being abused at an intersection. We wouldn't be having the conversation we're having right now. But because of what happened, you know, it's bad that this happened, but in each case, New ideas have come forward or issues had to be addressed. And one of them was this issue of communications and range. Because mechanized forces that we have around the state have just as good, if not, as far as I'm concerned, in some cases, better than what the other side have. But we've got to be able to do, and what we're going to have to do, SOP will have to take care of most of this because radio, you know, signal communications, discipline is another issue. It's not a telephone, right? So it's a surgical tool. Now, people are seeing what we've been talking about, the time lag issue, the response, not reaction, and being able to get that burst emergency signal out. If something happens, the next thing is the mechanized forces are going to be engaging. When that happens, there's going to be a call for assistance, it's going to be a burst signal transmission, it's going to be in a very narrow band, and it will be addressing specific problems. so just be prepared and that's why that we don't know when this is going to start but we don't want to go start we gotta stop you we get it we're gonna put an end to it well that one last thing i do a phenomenon is anything about that will probably experiment with this next year to the world we have certain people down here right now and that's what they're doing that uh... the event coming up in the month they're gonna have a radio event here in michigan guys i just a heads up although we have uh... captain monahan on the air here for the shortly And I think what we're going to do is to see Terence stuff apart and playing with things right now that will be on the list of things to do this week. Okay, well there's plenty of stuff on the web. Again, don't throw anything out, just put more in the toolbox guys. You got it. Thank you sir. Okay. And again Bob, and I think just in case do we have another caller maybe being patient? right very good so i think we have somebody just listening and that's good uh... another thing about uh... radio skies in fact right here to my left and i want to say thanks to dar uh... i've been going through what i did you think i'm sitting here i don't want to program i'm multi wealthy testing all the half to it on the choice but uh... we got a donation here of uh... rechargeable mike had three-pack c batteries These have a red and black connector. They're all set to roll. I would say what I've got. The box that's ready to be shipped if I need to has 36 battery sets right here. Plus a whole big bag. These I'm going to experiment with in a different direction with LEDs. Are lithium flat quarter size rechargeables. Now the neat thing about those that is guys a little solar cell off a calculator from the dollar store one somebody storing away because people throw away all the time you seem way around grab a little solar cell on it guess what you don't need the calculator about board it's cheap at the top of way if you want to do that but that little solar cell combined with a little tab battery and a little lvd light It's just amazing what you can do. Now you want to make sure you have a back circuit in place so that you don't pull whatever charge after darkness. Remember your little solar cell is going to be a negative at night if you don't add a few features. But what you're talking here is something that can be a nice little in epoxy. You put into paste, later glued onto with a hot glue gun onto a piece of metal and fold it over and then tack together. illuminating system for what we talked about before placing illumination in trees putting illumination in locations where you want to be able to pack it up think about how many ways you could do this you can put a little screw hole in the thing have a little nail already prepped in place put a little piece of cardboard to the other side of the nail where it goes through the fixtures so you don't lose the nail we put the kit into your box with all your other goodies when the time comes you need illumination for the area guess what or you want to remain in front of you that you want to control and observe with night vision uh... wall and the bigger the battery the more energy that lvd has to work with not that it's going to use a whole lot and there are some really super energy-efficient l e d s with really big lenses Now, the little point here, the idea, well, this comes from these little flashies that people, the kids were all doing about two or three years ago. They're still doing them. You find them here and there where they take a little magnet and they take a watch battery from the dollar store where you get like a card of 20 for a dollar and you grab these LEDs, the cheapest LEDs you can, the blinkies, and what you do is you hook them up so that you either solder or just simply glue one side in place so there's good contact. You put a slip of paper or cardboard on the other contact on the opposite side where the LED is connecting positive and negative. And when you want to use it, oh, one more thing, you also glue a cheapy magnet, well, these are refrigerator magnets. You get them by the card for thousands for whatever harmony dollars, $2 for $100. Well, now you've got yourself a tag that you can put on anything that's magnetic. train car cars, buses, if they have any sheet metal, and whatever else you want to, sides of buildings, and these things will run for up to two or three days non-stop depending on how powerful the battery is and how efficient the LED is. Which remember is a light emitting, what's that last word? Light emitting diode. We all call them LEDs when I think twice about what the nomenclature is. What does it stand for? Light Emitting Diode. Let's not forget that Hewlett Packard, HP, was the cutting edge company that really brought LEDs to the world. Yes, there are other companies and there are many companies that came and went and HP absorbed most of them guys. But LEDs, light emitting diodes, in their original form, robust and expensive by comparison of the components, but very valuable for what they were. And of course, as with everything else, standards went down, costs went down, quantities and types came up, and if you want an illuminator, something else to think about, and you want to spend a few pennies, what you used to pay for a real sophisticated LED back in the 60s, you can now pay even less for an infrared LED. Hmm, what does that mean? Well think about it. I can use that for night vision enhancement away from my position so it doesn't tell you where Mark is, but Mark from any one of a number of locations can observe with his night vision and watch to see who reacts to what. Somebody moves through an area and they stop and they hesitate and they seem to be observing your, shall we say, bait points that are IR-illuminated. Chances are they probably have some really good technology and they too notice that the IR wash is in place. In other words, they look and they see, hey, there's a blink something over there or there's a light. There's a foggy light over there. Well, then they stop and they look around and you notice that there seems to be some motion. And then they seem to hesitate and then they look, well of course, that's because they're taking their night vision and flipping it up or pulling it down, and looking and going, hey, that isn't white light, and then putting the night vision back up and going, oh, well maybe we'll sneak around that. See, if you want to bait or move your enemy into areas that are more effective kill zones, Sometimes, you let them know where something is, so they move to where they don't think there's a problem, and they walk right into, click, boom. Oh, that sharp spark noisy thing you heard, and that big flash, not a whole lot of big ball of lights, not that much. Boom. Well, that was a couple of the bad guys dying. Wait a minute, hold on. Boom. Now there's the other one. Yeah, they tripped into the other one too. Oh, that's messy. But that's OK, it's them not me. See how that works? So, there are many plans within circles within circles, ways that you can use the technology to your advantage or use it in ways that are not expected or unexpected because you're not supposed to be that bright. Oh, pardon me, bright LED. Oh, no, I know. Anyway, so ideas, guys. Now, another thing about these illuminators, purely it's a matter of cannibalizing stuff, too. There are a lot of machinery out there, have on-board batteries. You might not want to use them for a blinky or for an illumination point because the batteries are actually nicer than you expected. But don't forget that a lot of battery packs, for instance, let's say that you have a bad phone battery pack or a big battery pack for something and, man, the thing's not powering the way it was and it's failing. Well, guess what? Chances are, and this is a fact, there's only one cell that's actually bad when you open up that battery pack and you'll find that it's a cluster of either double AAAs, AAAs, or C, rechargeable batteries. Well, gee, what can you do with all those other rechargeable batteries? I don't know. Now don't start snipping everything off that battery pack. Huh? Well, you might notice that in many cases their industrial batteries are the same shape as any of your Cs, your AAAs, or AAAs, but take a look at the contact points. You may want to leave the little wire leads, the little wire connectors, on the fixtures, guys, because you'll need them later, depending on what you're going to do with it. Remember, it's a lot easier. Leave the solder points. They're already pretty tough anyway, or typically they're pretty tough. Once you can ID which cell is bad, you're going to have to do a little meter check on that. Once you ID where the down cell is, now you can disconnect them and charge them up separately, and you'll find out real quick which is the bad buddy. The other good ones are kept off to the side with their little extension wires and everything, or their little wire tapes. There's actually little tape systems too, guys. Metal tapes. Leave those where they are. Because it's easier to solder to the little metal tape than it is to re-solder the stupid battery. See how that works? So if you want to say add that to a circuit for a project, let's say you want to use it for a trip light or an impact light, you know, where you want to or a buzzer here's another one most people think about here's another one i have mentioned in a while electronics beat beat beat beat smoke alarms are designed to wake you up why do they wake you up i know we only got a few minutes here they wake you up because they were chosen for their frequency which agitate your nervous system and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and In fact, it probably does say that we just don't know it. What? Yeah, they actually picked a frequency where it says, get up stupid or you're going to die. But it sounds real. So you never hear the rest. Okay. But anyway, smoke alarms. Do we throw them away? Oh, hell no. First of all, we don't need the whole thing. We just want that buzzer. We don't need the rest of the circuit to make that buzzer work. And you might recall that it either works off a 9 volt battery or it works off, in many cases, a couple of double A's. Wow, that means you've got a power source. Look, I've got a bunch of them here in a box. You've got rechargeable batteries. You have a buzzer. You have two wires, telephone wires, cheap, cheap, cheap. I get tons of this stuff coming off these construction sites. and i can run contact plates now my little buzzer can be set out up and away factor on my leads to make sure i tactically cover everything i get a little project box piece of junk plastic square something or other i got out of the you know trash bin from over at the goodwill or something I like that looks like it's about right. A piece of PVC pipe will work with an end cap off a construction site where they've already cut it. Now I've got a whole bunch of excess. I drill a hole in the one end. I put the leads for the buzzer through that. On the back end, I'm going to glue my power source, or I can even put all of it inside the PVC tube, just a matter of being creative. But I can use the PVC tube to protect my buzzer and have it shielded so it also directs more of the sound that it makes. Now I can then add another little box to the back of my little PVC tube with the end cap which was already glued in place. I didn't buy something special. I'm using junk from the shelf. Stuff I found. I'm going to glue my power supply to the back of that. I can even put a little Italy again, my little solar charger off of my little calculator. It's going to trickle charge, not to get much, but it's going to add power. It's going to help to boost it when I leave it out in the tree there for a while. But then I can run my two wires out the back of that through the power source, and I have contact plates. all the contact plate is a little piece of foil metal on one side little foil metal on the other and that i have a piece of sheet metal a piece of cardboard ideally couple pieces of uh... board panel board friends there's a good choice panel board may have real would preferably not chipboard or junk i can then leave that somewhere where i have a little bit of a standoff for it and it's going to collapse in crush with somebody steps on it now when they do man Doesn't have to go boom, doesn't have to go boom. All it has to do is go meeee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee-ee Excuse me. And all you hear is that noise non-stop? It was designed to grate on your nerves. Let me point something out. If you have not been keeping up with police cars, the same system frequency and the same agitation technology is in the siren, pointed towards your car. Does everybody understand that? With repeated, repeated, repeated, repeated use, It is designed to agitate and confuse. It is part of a psychological warfare tool that is at the fingertips, literally, with a switch, when they're in pursuit. It's designed to help disrupt your cognitive thought. Oh, you mean you weren't paying attention to that? You need to do a little research on that technology. So don't tell me that this is not effective. It is. And is it cost effective? It's throw away! You do it with all the junk and debris be creative Oh and by the way to make it look cool if you want to make it look military But you also wanted to blend in go over to the hardware or the dollar store pick up those tactical colors again in Wow now it looks cool. You want to really look cool Hey make out a little stencil with a bunch of bullshit. You know excuse me BS numbers It's a mark 2 type 3 asterisk subassembly 2 you know made by schnitzelville or schnitzelvac or whatever the latest is and put a logo on it if you want to feel good too there you go now you feel better and Otherwise, you're doing exactly what radio geeks have done for years, but they put a logo on it, they put a nice cut case on it, and they sell it to the government. Most everything you see sold to government is typically small run contract designed by radio geeks and independent people who came up with cool ideas. Differences, we're doing it for us. So, again, simple solutions, noise makers. I will point out to people, say, well Mark, it doesn't blow up. No, it doesn't have to blow up, guys. What do you think a pop flare is for? Does that kill anybody? Doesn't kill anybody. But you know what a pop flare does? When you're standing out there and it's three o'clock in the morning and your night vision's all squared away and all of a sudden you see something off to your right up at way above your head height and it's making a real horrible noise and it's throwing about a million candle power all around you and you realize you're not being secret squirrel anymore, it's drawing attention to your place on the planet. Well, it does the same thing. And it's not lethal, but it sure as hell is agitating because here's the other part about that. That may not be lethal, but the next thing you hear is, oh, and don't forget the, you know what that is? That's a crack of the bullets through the area because that was a designated kill zone and the moment that your flare went off or the buzzer goes off, everybody knows it's called reconnaissance by fire. Oh, that's right. That's the lethal part. You see how that works? So, noise makers are just as valuable, light illumination fracture devices are just as valuable, and serve a purpose. Think this through be creative break out the solder stick break out that you know that solder pencil Break out all the other chunks old wire and stuff and have some fun making some man Matt Matt Matt noise makers guys noise makers well speaking of noise I hear the music we are at the top of the hour I think we've we've talked enough for the moment We've got let's see spikes putting a nail through the head of the new world order coming up in a minute here God bless the Republic death of the new world order We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen.
