Hey Mark, why don't you go down to your nearest fire-pit and start a big
bonfire with wood palettes. Throw on about 10 pounds of this Bismuth stuf
you speak of. Then, once that catches fire, throw about a gallon of water
on the burning Bismuth. My guess is that nothing of interest will happen.
However, if you had done this with Cesium (or his favorite cousin
Magnesium, found in Volkwagen crankcases for about $8/ea) you'd be well
advised to run like hell soon after tossing the gallon of water.

*THAT* is "why Cesium" and "not Bismuth". :-)

BTW, you didn't hear ANY of this from me. :-)

On a side note, I'm doing a senior-project for school on the Hall effect
and one of my profs is running around claiming that, as far as the Hall
effect goes, Bismuth behaves as if it has POSITIVE charge carriers. Anyone
care to comment.

Jeez, and I thought you guys were making this up!

		Speaking of thawing and dogs and the warm glow that we all feel
	at Thanksgiving, it seems appropriate here to bring up the matter of
	the 1,000 frozen radioactive federal dogs in California. I am not
	making these dogs up. Several alert readers sent me an editorial about
	them that appeared in The Fresno Bee (Motto: ``Fresno's Most Comically
	Named Newspaper''). It seems that in 1958 the federal government, which
	as you know is always looking for expensive new ways to appear
	ridiculous, began an experiment wherein 1,000 beagles were regularly
	injected with radiation to see what happens when you inject beagles
	regularly with radiation. The last beagle died in 1986, and all of
	their bodies, which are radioactive, are being kept in frozen storage
	near Davis, Calif., along with -- this is still true -- 34,000 gallons
	of radioactive beagle waste.
		So far this project has cost $65 million, not including
	disposal, which is expected to cost a lot more, although nobody has
	figured out how to accomplish it yet. My suggestion would be to simply

Why not both?  The deep luster of molten cesium, flowing in shining
rivulets, is truly a sight to behold...  But I do not hold cesium in
my hands.  Bismuth hopper crystals, glowing in oxide iridescence, are
clearly much safer to have around the house.

Something with a half-life of 3*10^6 years won't occur naturally unless it is
the decay product of something else, since it has been about 1333 half-lives
since the formation of the Earth.  What's 1/(2^1333)?  That's the amount of
the original Cs-135 left, if the earth is 4 billion years old.

As to how they list vanishingly small quantities, look up helium.  Helium is
nearly 100% helium-4 but there's a very tiny amount of helium-3, well under
0.1%.

When I was still at Rice I did a lot of monitoring of Houston
Polic radio.  I don't have any of the frequencies anymore, though.
It's FAR more activity that you listen to at once though.  I'd pick
the dispatch channel in your area (near Rice its "Southwest Mic" which
should be a very busy frequency somewhere around 460.1).

Popular Communication magazine printed lotsa frequencies for Houston 
in a cover story a few months ago.  See if you can get a back issue.

As I understand it, a mobile extended is a tranceiver that allows
an officer-of-the-law to communicate from his portable back to his
vehicle on a separate frequency than that of his vehicle.  The
extender then broadcasts out from the vehicle, taking advantage of
the vehicle's transmitter and it's higher power.  Is this true?

Because of this, it is suggested you monitor the state-patrol's mobile
extender freqs.  If you here the transmission, the bear is near.
My question is, is the car's transmitter to the mobile extender
transmitting all incomming data to the handheld at all times, even
when the officer is not using the handheld.  That is, can the exteneder
be shut off?

The Radio Shack versions of Uniden scanners are built by Uniden
but require different programming steps and and have somewhat
different features.

For example, the RS version of the 100xlt has a 12VDC input jack on the
side.  The 100xlt does not.

The RS version versions usually have PGM, MONITOR, and CLEAR buttons, too.

I am using the PRO-43 with the recommended 1.25v NiCd batteries (RS

it does not seem to be available yet--at least not in Washington, DC.
I am using an RS catalog no. 273-1650 300 mA adapter set to 9v.

Anyone have a similar problem or any suggestions...

	I can't help you out, but I can sympathize.

	My 2004 has both modifications.  Occasionally when I turn it
on, it won't recognize the "extra" 100 channels.  Usually if I turn 
the scanner on and off several times, it will fix itself.  To me
this indicates either a bad diode or solder connection.  Although for
the past week, it has been recognizing the extra 100 channels.

Spread spectrum is a modulation technique in which the data is
essentially transmitted in paralle on many frequencies simultaneously. 

Frequency hopping involves transmitting on many frequencies on after
another. 

Burst transmissions are typically shorter than 100 milleseconds in
duration. 

All of these modes are primarily for digital data and are commonly
combined to further obscure the transmission.

Yes and No.

Yes - I need a few more grids on 6 for VUCC that I'll be looking for in the
contest later this month.

No - because Ponderosa, Texas clobbers Lakes Region Mutual Fire Aid up here
in New Hampshire. Luckily, Texans pronounce their R's and our dispatchers
don't/can't drawl, so we can tell who's who :-). Such is life on 33.90 MHz!!

I'm waiting for someone to market - for the average consumer - a scanner,
either hand-held or table-top, that can select and store various CTCSS tones
on a per-channel basis. In other words, if I need to listen to KBZ283, I not
only punch up '33.90' but also the appropriate CTCSS tone and put it in, say
Channel 1. In channel 2, I might put another RF freqency with its CTCSS tone
as well. The technology is in many amateur hand-helds today, but I'd like
to see a cheap receiver I can toss in the car or whatever.

Thanks to all the people who responded to my post about poor charging.
Several folks said they had had similar problems.  It was suggested that
I test each battery after a good charging with radio off.  I did 
this and each battery was OK.

One kind soul who replied said that he was using the recommended
RS 20-188 charger and that he never had charging problems like I 
described.  It was suggested that the "Universal AC Adapter" that RS
sold me was not adequate to charge NiCd batteries.  I have not been
able to get the recommended charger from any Radio Shack in Washington,
DC, but plan to try the recommended charger ASAP.  The adapter that 
I am using does not seem to fit the charge jack was well as it could--
I have gotten the low battery indication when the unit was on and charging
before.  It doesn't seem to make contact all the time.

Because the batteries are OK, I am currently of the opinion that the
adapter is the culprit.  Unfortunately, I haven't been able to test
this theory yet.  I'll keep you posted.  Thanks again to all who
took the time to reply!
