Re: [DMCForum] Re: Lo-jack

[Jim Strickland <ihaveanaccount@xxxxxxxx>]

The only thing that I am convinced of is that a "metal shipping
container" does not seal very well.  By definition, no electromagnetic
signals can get inside a "faraday cage", which I thought a metal shipping
container would be very similar to.  

If the shipping container or elevator was a metal box without openings,
it would get no signal inside.  

Andrei is "onto something" about frequency, but only that significantly
increased frequency has a higher propensity for going through
non-metallic matter, and not being absorbed/reflected by it.  

There are other methods we're aware of, such as ULF and ELF for
transmitting underwater, but i think that's irrelavent here.
