content: Actually, you can use a higher-frequency acoustic wave (ultrasound), beam-form it to a focus at the victim’s head, and amplitude modulate it at a low or even sub-audible frequency to obtain an apparent bass note at a distance from the source. This has been reduced to practice for perimeter control applications.

content: Quote from: TimFox on May 07, 2021, 01:50:43 pmHowever that would not explain the sound recorded by someone with a cellphone. Microwaves are not acoustic waves. There are two mechanisms by which a person could theoretically HEAR microwaves themselves (thermal expansion and contraction of bones in the head which then can transfer the mechanical vibrations to the ear drums, or direct electrochemical damage from strong microwave energy to nerve cells in the nerves and brain tissues responsible for processing signals from the ears). However, NONE of this would be able to be recorded by a cellphone's microphone. For one, thermal expansion/contraction noise generated by objects in the same room, would generate sound waves that would be far too weak by the time they traveled through the air to the cellphone's microphone (only a direct mechanical linking such as ear-bones would allow the sound to be detected). Also, direct pickup of the microwave energy by the cellphone's circuits in a way that would be recorded as an audible sound would be very unlikely (internal circuits in a phone are usually shielded by a grounded metal foil layer over the circuits, to make them comply with part 15 FCC regs, so the circuits don't accidentally emit levels of RF that could interfere with other radio reception). Furthermore, I think the person who heard the sound themselves, verified that what they had recorded sounded like what they heard when it was happening. It's unlikely that if there was a microwave generated sound in the person's head, and separately in the phone, that they would sound identical, as the signal conversion mechanism of the oscillations (from electromagnetic to mechanical), would be different between a person hearing it and the phone's microphone "hearing" it.So this leaves the only viable possibility. That possibility is that a SONIC weapon was in use. Either a sonic weapon with a high, but audible, frequency was being used, or it was using an ultrasonic frequency, that vibrated the surface of some object in such a strong manner that its vibration had a non-linear effect on the material's vibration (like it was driven at 50kHz, but vibrated strongly at 5kHz, due to non-linear mechanical effects in the material).And yes, that audio recording is real. It isn't just a myth. It actually exists. This is right from the source, linked to from the original AP article.Here's the articlehttps://apnews.com/article/health-north-america-ap-top-news-cuba-health-mystery-international-news-88bb914f8b284088bce48e54f6736d84Yet for some reason the news now is pushing the idea that it's microwave, seemingly FORGETTING that they actually have their hands on an actual AUDIO RECORDING from the Havana event. Originally, for a week or two, the news talked about this with the idea it was a sonic weapon, and every time they ran the news story they played this sound recording. Then as soon as the microwave theory was published, they SUDDENLY never again played (or even mentioned) this recording, almost as if they forgot it even existed. My guess, is that the sonic idea was TOO CLOSE to the truth. And the govt was NOT happy that the sonic weapon idea was being discussed by the news, so the govt published a new "study" that suggested microwaves were to blame, and published the study as a press release, to distract the news agencies from the actual sonic weapon being used. And it worked. The news has SUDDENLY forgotten all about the sonic weapon. But why would the govt want to hide the type of weapon? It's not like it's our weapon, as it was in fact being used AGAINST us. But that leads me to think maybe it WAS our weapon, and somehow, Russia or another enemy nation somehow managed to get their hands on it, and the US govt did NOT want it to come out in the news that a technology stolen from us was now being used against us. So the US govt intentionally mislead EVERY NEWS AGENCY, by publishing this fake report, trying to get them to forget the sonic weapon idea.But trust me. I've NOT forgotten about the possibility of it being a sonic weapon. In fact, that's my BEST GUESS as to the type of weapon it was. It was almost CERTAINLY a sonic weapon.

content: How can you be certain that the cell phone was not responding to strong modulated microwaves? I don't think the EMC susceptibility testing requirements include such extreme situations.Assuming the modulation was intended to cause distress and damage to the victim, it could well give a similar spurious response in the receiver to the auditory response in the human target.As I said, the jury is still out on this continuing problem.

content: This is an important problem, and the cause has not yet been nailed down.My educated guesses (without access to the actual data):1. To aim the damage at an individual target requires a short wavelength to achieve a focused delivery. Either electromagnetic (microwave or laser) or acoustic (ultrasound) is required.2. There may be more than one method in use. Recent events have targeted victims outdoors in open space, but earlier events have occurred indoors. Electromagnetic waves are better than ultrasound to penetrate buildings, but both work outdoors.3. There is a long history of microwaves aimed at the American embassy in Moscow, especially between 1953 and 1976 (between 2.5 and 4 GHz), although it is not believed to have been at dangerous levels. The famous passive microphone (embedded in a wood carving of the Great Seal of the United States) was invented by Lev Termen, the inventor of the theremin. It was given as a modern Trojan horse in 1945, and not discovered until 1952.4. Even though none of this is ionizing radiation, both microwaves and ultrasound can produce local heating or other power-dependent effects, so an amplituded-modulated beam can produce audible effects.

content: Another recent article in the NY Times said that the American government is re-opening the investigation, this time with government scientists who have appropriate security clearance to look at all the data collected by the intelligence agencies. The previous attempt (3 or 4 years ago) used staff that did not have clearance, and came to no useful conclusion due to lack of data.An interesting question iscui bono? The first reports were when the Obama administration was trying to normalize relations with Cuba, and it's not clear to me why the Cuban government itself would try to stop that. There are other parties interested, some of whom are "state actors", with different agendas.

content: Quote from: TimFox on July 18, 2021, 10:59:56 pmAs we have seen recently, they have RF jammers for at least the HF ham-radio bands, that they got from the Soviets back during the cold war. What if they also have some directional microwave jammers from the Soviets from the same era? What would happen if instead of being used for jamming by aiming just above the top of the building at the antenna on the roof of that building, it was instead aimed at the side of the building itself and thus used as an anti-personnel weapon against the occupants of that building? Jammers can be very powerful. If it's from a fixed-mounted location instead of a portable unit, the transmitter can draw large amounts of power from the 120V or 240V mains. I could easily see a microwave jammer using a highly directional dish antenna (probably mounted on a motorized pan-tilt platform for aiming) capable of producing a very narrow and intense beam of microwaves, with the actual magnetron generating microwaves at a power level of several kilowatts. Imagine what that would do to a human body, even miles away from the transmitter location, if the beam was well collimated enough. Imagine a 5kW to 10kW microwave beam coming from a 1-meter diameter dish with very good parabolic geometry to produce a very collimated beam, so the beam would be 1-meter in diameter at the dish, and still about 1 meter in diameter even a mile away, and maybe increasing only one inch in diameter for every 2 miles it travels. Now imagine microwave jammer dish being mounted on the top of a Cuban government owned building, and aimed at an American embassy just a few miles away. It's a reasonable scenario, I think.

A one-meter dish operating at 2.4 GHz will have a -3dB beamwidth of about 7 degrees. At a one mile distance, the beam spot will be about 648 feet in diameter. Now the Arecibo dish (RIP) had a 2.4 GHz beamwidth of about 0.028 degrees -- at one mile distance this would give a beam spot of 2.6 feet. Well, not really, given the dish dimensions, but you get the idea.

The far field for that antenna begins at 1441km! Even the reactive near-field only ends 9.1 km away.https://www.antenna-theory.com/basics/fieldRegions.phpThe NTIA has published TM-87-129 with some math to calculate radiation patterns in the near field, and TM-90-145 to calculate power density for parabolic reflectors.

content: Quote from: Ben321 on July 04, 2021, 07:06:06 amMy first thought was a low-frequency (audible) switching power supply. How loud was it? What other devices were in the immediate area? How much ambient noise has been removed? Etc.---For example, I've heard the switching supply of a laptop via a ground loop in a PA system. (purely electronic until it got to the PA speakers, then audible from there) It was constant as long as the computer wasn't doing anything, and changed to a warble as the computer's activity changed, even slightly. Just moving the mouse was enough.It wasn't *exactly* like this recording, but I thought it was similar at first listen. (although a fundamental that high doesn't leave much room for audible harmonics; likewise for a recording that is designed to barely cover the range of human hearing) A different circuit design ("spread spectrum" by hopping around discretely?), or perhaps multiple circuits that are all part of the same poorly laid-out system that also has a speaker involved somewhere, might produce this recording by accident.---I unplugged the laptop from the wall and let it run on battery instead (broke the ground loop), and the noise stopped instantly. I plugged it back into the wall, and it was back. It had a USB connection to the otherwise analog sound system (the analog mixer had a jellybean USB sound card in it), so I put a USB isolator in that connection, which also killed the noise, even with the laptop powered from the wall.Lesson: Ground loop noise is not limited to the raw AC power line. It could be anything, and the solution is the same: find and break the loopwhile retaining all of the safety grounds.
