In the fast paced world of education one often finds oneself with a burning
|
||
hatred towards one or more teachers or fellow students. This article will
|
||
describe how to build a little device that will emit a very high freqency that
|
||
is -extrememly- annoying to most people and it will wreck concentration and can
|
||
cause some nasty headaches.

Parts needed:
|
||
|
||
R1: 100k ohm Trimmer potentiometer
|
||
R2: 47k ohm resistor (5% tolerance)
|
||
C1: 4.7 uF Polarized electrolytic capacitor
|
||
C2: small disc capacitor (.001 uF or less)
|
||
SP: 8 ohm speaker. Piezo buzzers work best but you can use most any speaker
|
||
for this job.
|
||
IC: 555 timer Integrated Circut.. Availible at Radio shack or any decent
|
||
electronics store

Okay
|
||
Now that we have the schematic out of the way we can discuss construction..
|
||
It's best to use an 8-pin socket for soldering before you put the IC in.. You
|
||
can put it on a small PC board or perfboard.. Use R1 (the potentiometer) to
|
||
adjust the frequency from a high whistle to an instant migrane. If you find
|
||
that the freqency is not as high as desired use a smaller capacitor for C2.
|
||
The Idea here is to bring the frequency just below the highest frequency that
|
||
can be perceived by the human ear. You will definetly know when you have
|
||
acheived this! Once finished mount it in a project case with an on/off switch
|
||
and you're ready.

|
||
|
||
One particularly nice thing about this device is that if you set it to a high
|
||
enough frequency it is almost impossible to locate once hidden.. So once
|
||
you've found a suitible location put it anywhere were it can't easily be seen
|
||
and turn it on.. Guaranteed results! .. One little problem with this thing
|
||
is that some teachers don't seem to hear it (generally older teachers).. but
|
||
anyone with a good set of ears will be driven crazy by it!! Including you if
|
||
you place it in a room that you are planning to be in for any length of time..
|
||
So DONT. If you have any questions about this thing I'll be happy to answer
|
||
inquiries.. Have fun!
