LOL. Seriously: My 20 cents: Moving current creates a magnetic field and I believe the larger the current the greater the field. This magnetic field interferes with the electronics in your radio that pick up radio transmission. So it's not the sound waves that are disturbed but rather you radio's electronics. Now I remember why I like physics 8~) --- On Thu, 5/14/09, Peter Karunyu <pkarunyu(a)gmail.com> wrote: From: Peter Karunyu <pkarunyu(a)gmail.com> Subject: Re: [Skunkworks] General Engineering/Physics Question To: "Skunkworks forum" <skunkworks(a)lists.my.co.ke> Date: Thursday, May 14, 2009, 10:26 AM Or it could be the church.

CISCO 871 ISR QUERY
by Alvin Jason Ochieng 14 May '09

14 May '09

Query - When would you recommend a Cisco router (say an 871 ISR) to a client? Or even better when would you buy one for yourself? How well does the Cisco SmartNet Service work for us in Kenya (and East Africa)? Reply -871 is best used in a small office setup. It��s non-modular and does not have expansion slots. Best used at bandwidth rates of 768kbps and below With regards to smartnet in Kenya you have the following options: 24x7x4 8x5xNBD 8x5x4 We have a local depot in Nairobi hence we can offer all the deliverables.
