I knew a ham (a bit of a flake), well still is, who discovered at age 30
that if he transmitted in the medical allocation around 400 MHZ he could
manipulate the rate on his pacemaker. Scary stuff not to mention
illegal. What a good scenario for a mystery however!
Thank you!

Yup, John. ... It just boils down to common sense, and making
intelligent informed decisions and choices when the need arises.
Believe me, when I got the pacemaker, I knew it was what I had to do,
but I
was bound and determined not to have it interfere with myham radio
activities. And, so far so good.
If anyone ever wants more details about how I do things, or if you have
questions about pacemakers and what I know about them in relation to RF,
let
me know. I'm by no means an expert--like I said, a lot of it just boils
down to using your head.
