[Götz von Berlichingen]

Finally, a real LRL that makes perfect sense.

Thanks to Randall Munroe for this great work.

That's really funny! But it's missing the most important component: The dowsing rod!

Well, there is an Antenna.
You, being a real Expert, know this (half Dipole) will give the worst Reception if its pointed to the Transmitter. Thats LRL Logic.
There is also :
-Timer IC
-Hot Glue (Say Hello To Dell Winders)
-Magic Smoke (only Experts in Electronics will understand this one)
-Holy Water (a placeholder for all the weird Stuff People may believe)
-Arduino (its a Microcontroller... super Hi Tech)
-Squirrel. Annoying, but somehow cute

This Schematic makes a lot more sense than all the (expensive) LRLs that have been Disassembled by you.

Hi Goetz

can you provide us with PCB. I am trying to make it but my auto-router get kaput.

I'm very sorry, but my super-hi-tech Autoplacer and Autorouter failed miserably on this one.
It seems like these LRL-People have a lot more Knowledge - something we can never learn, because we are just plain stupid (sorry).

Where do i place the Squirrel ?

[Fred]

Be carefull where you place the squirrel.
I am sure there is someone willing to make you a PCB for only 9999 USD
Also, from the same author there is one more secret revealed:on what frequency to tune this LRL :

yeah, aliens and SETI are not able to get up the contact. i did know why
