Heh. I'm pretty sure it's not a pirate broadcast station

In either case, however, a strong enough (interfering) signal
will give no audible change in response over a fairly broad range of
signal strengths (unless it has an S meter). For work close to the
source, then, you need a means of seriously attenuating the signal.
There is a technique that works without going to RadShack or the local
supermarket for parts... Though, as has been pointed out, it works
better for AM than FM... but it should work in FM.
It's called Body Shielding. Your body can act as a shield. Tune the

On a Red Hat 9 system I've encountered a situation where there are two
processes that I cannot kill when using kill -9 (or any other value, for
that matter.)
What's the deal with that? The only kind of process that I've ever run
across that I could not kill was a

Do a ps aux and note their status. It's D, right? That means

Hmm, the I/O wait seems likely. We've been having trouble with an IOMega

Yikes! I've never, ever encountered an IOMega product that didn't
suck in some major way. No wonder it doesn't work.

Hey, my first linux box ran off a 150MB Bernoulli drive hooked up to my
soundblaster.
That was before Iomega gave up on Bernoulli effect

Advanced body shielding involves a secondary conductive shielf. You
put the radio in Pringles can, or other deep open-top conductive case,
antenna up, and using a lanyard (string) to pull up (and let gravity
