Grieving Mother of KIA', on Sat, 18 Sep 2004:
Read the story about Sue Niederer, a distraught and grieving mother, who
recently lost her son in Iraq. This is the "compassionate" conservative
mindset for you- they shout her down, rough her up, and arrest and
charge her. They make her out to be a psycho when her only crime was
being HUMAN!
The news item indicates that she has, not without reason, been actively
protesting for a while. Anyone who goes to a political meeting intent on
creating a disturbance, however justified, must expect that some
physical effects will result. And shouting 'police brutality' isn't
guaranteed to enlist the sympathy of those cops who might otherwise
restrain their less gentle colleagues. That's the way the world is.
'Defiant trespass' may be an offence dating from the 17th century,
punishable by a fine of 50 cents. I don't know that it is: it might be
punishable by hanging, but before judging the matter, the nature and
consequences of the charge need to be determined.
You probably have a short, bad resistor, miswiring, or some suchHi,
I designed a circuit running on 10v, which uses a L7805CV (morocco
MCC1A0336)voltage regulator to give me 5v for my IC's and LED's.
The problem is the 7805 gets very hot! more than enough to burn you
finger on.
Sometimes even cuts out (built in high temp. cutout).
The strange thing is, when removing the 7805 and measure with a amp
meter, i am only drawing upto 150Ma.
This particular model of 7805 is rated for upto 1.5amp (heatsink
required after 1 amp). I am using a heatsink too.
My question is, apart from the input voltage being too high, OR the
drawing current being too much, what else can make a 7805 get too hot
?
The circuit is running 2 pic 16f628's @ 16mhz, and a SX28 @ 50mhz, and
a few led's.
-I have ruled out too much current by removing the 7805 and using an
external 5v source and measuring current draw. (upto 150ma).
-I have checked the input voltage is between 10 and 11 volts, well
within normal limits.
-I have carefully read the specifications on this particular 7805 in
the datasheet to confirm the above limits
-I have ruled out a faulty 7805 because i have many of them, and using
a few of them randomly present the same problem.
-I have thoroughly cleaned the board of any flux residue which i
thought could create some kind of short.
-I have carefully inspected for any other shorts (in which case the
current draw in test#1 would have been more anyway)
-I am using a heatsink, even though it should not be necesary
-I use these same 7805's in another circuit, drawing a CONSTANT 450ma,
with no heatsink, and they dont even get warm.
-Removing the PIC chips from their sockets makes no difference, in
which case all that is left is a SX chip running @ 50mhz and 3 few
leds.
-This all happens even when the circuit is disconnected from any
external connections (PC serial etc).
I noticed on the SX chip development board, their regulator (LM294OCT)
gets unexpectadly warm also - is there something about SX chips i am
missing ?
I know the I/O can be set to CMOS or TTL levels, i think mine are
configured correctly - but i dont have much experience with SX chips
(this is my first SX based design).
I am out of ideas
Any suggestions of what to try/look for ?

who's to decide what exactly "defiant trespass" constitutes? Some

whilst it may be the pettiest of misdemeanors right now, that can

Well, the extra word seems quite reasonably to *define* an offence; of
trespass in defiance of a verbal warning or sign etc.. I believe there
is no such offence under English law, which results in serious abuse.
For example, if you are even tricked into inviting a person into your
house, you *cannot* use any sort of force to eject him, even if he
overstays his welcome. Cases have been widely reported where elderly
people have been coerced by salesmen into buying stuff after being
subjected to many hours of aggressive persuasion. These punks simply
refuse to leave and know that the law is on their side.

I see no reason to try and jam the entire band. Just put together a
simple FM transmitter and as someone earlier suggested, transmit a
squeal or something equally irritating over whatever station they're
listening to. As M->P suggested, that will be far easier to accomplish
technically. If you need schematics for a simple FM transmitter that's
very easy to build, yet very effective I can help you there. I've
built and used several on this design. In fact, there's a drag strip
in GA using a transmitter I built off of this schematic using it to
transmit race stats so people can listen in their cars and with head
sets so they can hear over the loud car exhaust. Also got the board
foil design and component layout making it super simple to build if
you want to go the professional route.

I find the paragraph, even after the change, to be very difficult to

experiencing the same reaction. When several receivers have the same
reception problems with the same signal, you should consider the
possibility that there is a flaw in the transmitter.

Kind words, but misplaced. Look, I know when I read something
whether or not it makes sense or not. The issue is that I am
preoccupied with the *content*, so I rush through the more
inconsequential things. Even after an offending piece is pointed
out, a dyslexic still wont know why something doesn't make good
grammatical sense. I do.
I agree with that. Speed, fatigue sometimes, contributes to making
spelling errors. Speed often leads to skipping letters or entire
words. That doesn't make you an imbecile who can't write. I often
make errors with word that sound more or less equal. Like to & too,

Not at all. Again, I truly *meant* what I said. This *specifically*
addresses the fact that it often seems that there is no biological
evolutionary advantage, but when examined closely, there may well
be. I am not making a claim that some conduct has no advantage, I am
claiming that at first glance it seems that way, but the initial
view is wrong. That is way "apparent" is there.
You miss the point. You say "much of it appear to have no apparent
biological evolutionary advantage...". Having said "appear" [sic], the
word "apparent" becomes redundant.
You can correct it all if you wish.So, it looks like you only caught a spelling error.
