Rebooting the amiga with a couple of walkie-talkies!
« on: August 15, 2003, 06:31:00 PM »
I just reboted my amiga with two walkie-talkies. :python:

I hade just repaird a couple of walkie-talkies and was testing them.

And I noticed that the speakers amplified the click sound from the 'talkies and the monitor wobbled.

As I am, I can't strain the urge for clicking more with the 'talkies.

So suddenly poof the computer reboots...



I'm no expert, but I think the hi-freqency signal from the 'talkies conducted (I'm not sure that's the right word) to the computer and some kind of error mecanism in the computer detected that something was wrong and rebooted, when the disturbance became to much.

I don't know.

I am sheilded with a ELBox Tower.

But it could be that I have removed one side from the tower so I easly can reach for the ppc board or something similare.

So if I assamble the side to the tower then it should sheild the RF signals.

Atleast the manual for my Tower states that it should sheild of the computer from any kind of disturbance.

And it also hade a OK mark that is suppose to verify that the manual is right.
