From the quoted exerpts, it SEEMS as if Mr. Parnass and I have read the
same article, but our reactions are totally different.
I did not see any details that would enable anyone to build a RADAR
jammer if the builder did not already have the knowledge to do so;
all I saw was a general description of the principles involved.
Further, I don't agree that the original poster has "just used the net
to advocate the breaking of federal and international regulations."
I saw neither advocacy nor encouragement; indeed, I saw cautions and
warnings of the penalties for using a jammer.
Maybe we weren't reading the same article.
