Human Antenna?

From Edmonds.com October long term review of the 3.5....

Quote:
Phil found that the keyless remote, already possessing good range, could have its range extended even further by employing a trick he learned from a porter on a car lot. If you hold the remote up to your body, say up against your jaw, you turn yourself into a broadcast antenna.

It's true. It tripped me out the first time I tried it. It works good on your garage door opener.

HAHA!! If you hold it under your mouth and open it, it amplifies the signal even further.

Using that criteria, imagine if you had braces. Could probably render the supermarket doors useless.

Its very true. Hold the FOB up to your jaw and you can find your car in the mall parking lot up to 50 feet further away. Very helpful holiday tip!

Who could have possibly come up with this in the first place? Amazing.

Just as Al Gore created the internet, I, in fact, found out that this was possible. I would love to tell you how, but the tequilla just took control. Don't remember the details.
