I wouldn't shoot them down because that could get you in real trouble.
However, there are many jammers being offered for sale on the 'net that
could cause some problems for a nosy neighbor. I don't anticipate ever
having an issue but it's sorta fun to think about having one hovering
around in our backyard and hitting the "on" button on a jammer.


WA smart one would just go home if the uplink was jammed.

That silenced pellet gun might be a decent idea.

I am not really interested in killing Henks drone but I was thinking a
fairly simple air cannon like they use for the water feature at the
Bellagio might work without violating any firearm laws
I had a prototype I made for my neighbor to shoot at "no wake"
violators but it worked to well. He didn't want to try it.
I could put a gallon of water into a target about 60 feet away.
(PVC pipe, a pump type bladder tank for an air reservoir and a
solenoid valve.)


Sounds like an idea. Although a good shot of water would probably do a whole lot more damage than a
pellet. But, it wouldn't be 'shooting' it.



Can't wait to read about the next hobby...stamp collecting?


Go read your poem. Then come back and be nice while telling us about your Mac.
