Cell Phone Blocker

And that is why the Military wants to control the technologies that gets
deployed in IRAQ. They actually want CDMA (instead of GSM) over there
because it's easy for them to intercept (don't let them fool you) and
allows them to deploy this technology to disrupt the communications over
there, or anywhere, if required.

Now would they ever deploy this in the US, probably not, or at least I
hope they never have to.

I'm from the Us but I started using mobile phones while living in Asia.

I had totally forgotten, until visiting the US this summer, that there
are places where you do not have full signal. In my rural backwater
part of China I often have signal underground.

I know what you mean I'm in Canada and and there is many places with no
signal in any cell company be it GSM CDMA or TDMA I go to a small and not
so rich country in Europe and I get signal out in the mountains,a 2 hour
drive away from any city .

He was Scottish, however it wouldn't work until he gave up the ideals of his
roots and stopped trying to reverse the charges.

Only because you never cover your jingoistic noses.:-)

When someone is having a heartattack or on officer is attempting to
arrest a felon it is still more important for them to have reliable
communications and I'm sure you will have difficult time trying to mount
a credible defense otherwise.

big flash, Buckwheat.... public safety officers don't use cellular -
they have their own communications network with their own radios. 10-4?

No kidding but you don't happen to be up on my previous post that states
that Public Safety shares the same 800 spectrum. The 10 tower site
public safety simulcast system that I manage interleaves with NEXTEL on
6 of the 28 channels and the other 22 are directly below the 800
cellular band at 866 and 867 MHz. Case in point, if a cellular blocker
is deployed in the 800 band, you can and will interfere with any
existing public safety systems in the 800 MHz spectrum in that same
area.

Have you ever seen the flashing antenna boxes at some of the computer
shows? If you have, don't try using your cellphone or NEXTEL around it
because its generating RF to light the antennas and is very similiar to
the cellular blockers. The FCC has outlawed these boxes yet the message
hasn't gotten out to all of the owners. I carry a copy of the recent
ruling with me and if I do find one I have a police officer confiscate
the box on the spot as the ruling allows them to do this.

You can't mess with the master. :-P

I can mess with whatever master I please, since I am the master of my
domain. If your cell phone interferes with my private use of my
private space, I'll ask you once to remedy the situation about ten
seconds before I find my own remedy. (Hint: Most don't like it) And
if a public safety responce is necessary, we can summon them with any
one of several landlines.

Or I can activate my cell blocker and dispatch stupid ringtones and
basless blather to the netherworld permanently.

The choice is yours. :-P

It's not a matter of you calling for public safety, its public safety
requesting back-up or assistance from another agency. An officer isn't
going to go to a land-line requesting back-up. That isn't the way that
we do business.

As far as my cell phone invading your private space, that won't happen.
I happen to be very courteous with my phone, keep it on vibrate almost
all the time, and 9 times out of 10 will call the caller back at a later
time and the other one time will step away or go outside. Its up to
you, me, and other technology savvy individuals to educate the rude,
insensitive, or uneducated cell phone users.--

Maybe they ought to reconsider the way they do business. I won't
presume to tell anyone how to conduct their business, but I may tell
them how I intend to conduct my business - maybe not - it depends on
how I feel at the moment. Personally, I don't care if anyone gets
their business done, and they're perfectly welcome to feel the same
way about me. Public safety people have their priorities, I have
mine. Clearly, we're not together on this, and I'm not posting this
to mislead anyone into thinking I actually care about those
differences, because I don't.

In that case, you're right, you won't be getting singled out for being
rude. However, I don't believe it's my lot in life to educate anyone
about anything, they'll have to deal with their education on their own
terms. Some folks seem hell bent to learn some things the hard way,
but they all learn eventually. I've drawn my line in the sand, and
I'm certain some are foolish enough to step across it thinking nobody
cares. Trust me, nothing could be further from the truth.
