allfreetime Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Yes cell phones and garage door openers at 2.4GHz are the main triggering signals to boost a battery powered charge and ignite an IED. Here is a phone based IED charge which was blocked by a JCREW 'Joint Counter Radio Controlled IED Electronic Warfare' blocker made by my customers ITT, LMCO and SNC.

bed framed Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 around the same time my parents had their house broken into, they got a lot of hang-up calls from blocked or restricted numbers. the robbers were casing the place to see when someone was home or not. if you make it seem like someone's always home, you won't get your shit stolen. How the hell did they get your parents number? It seems like somebody who knew them were trying to break in. Is anyone you or your parents know a drug addict? Sounds like something a fiend would do. In case they got caught they would feel safer with someone they knew because they would likely go easier on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

publicenemyno.3 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 How the hell did they get your parents number? It seems like somebody who knew them were trying to break in. Is anyone you or your parents know a drug addict? Sounds like something a fiend would do. In case they got caught they would feel safer with someone they knew because they would likely go easier on them. this was about 16 years ago when everyone had a home phone. they live out in the middle of nowhere and the county used to publish a book that said who owned what property. i have old copies of them for trying to locate abandoned farms. once they found out who owned the property, it's as simple as looking up the number in the phone book. these days it's a helluva lot easier to find out who lives where with this thing they call the internet. they did get broken into once while we were on vacation and that very well could have been someone they knew.

morton Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Got my van broken into last night, took my tool set and some jackets. Also smashed the ignition, breaking it but not starting the rig. Classy, and to make matters better insurance does not cover a "partial theft" so I am stuck paying 300 to fix the lock or doing it myself. Against my better judgement I am going the diy route.

CILONE/SK Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Is it worth keeping? If not, make it a full theft and torch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morton Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Spent 9 hours working on that ignition lock cylinder today. Just about got it, gotta put the steering wheel back on tomorrow and test the systems. Lots of patience required to work on cars. Now I am mean mugging every teenager that comes through the parking lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theprotester Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Protestor = Cop Obviously. @morton: While I respect your DIY, how the fuck do you spend nine hours on an ignition barrel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morton Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Well I counted breakfast and breaks in the time calc, and it just took a lotta time, trips to the store for tools and book etc. Pull the airbag, steering wheel, compress the fucking shaft, pull the turn signal, pull a bunch of other shit out of the way, have shit not work just right etc. Also I have never worked on a car before, so I like to take my time.

theprotester Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Just remember if you've removed the airbag it will usually have a register tag to say it has been, can be important in case of an insurance claim. Props for DIY. But don't fuck it up, yo! What kind of ute is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CILONE/SK Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Australians are so fucking weird for thinking that a 1994 Van is something to "have a hard on for". What is so special about them? I might start buying them and shipping them over there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
