Unless the target is a Western Electric 500 desk telephone, ca 1965 or 70. I have seen footage of someone putting a 30-06 round through the network of one (with the case off) *while the set was active on a call*. It stayed working, clearly, or this anecdote wouldn't be especially... anecdote-y. I will note that I have a NetGear MR-814 recently installed at my night gig, the State Theatre in St Pete, and to my surprise, at 4 ft above the floor, it hits damned near every spot in the 100'x300', 60' tall *plaster and lath* building like a ton of bricks. I was shocked, *shocked*, I tell you. I'm pretty sure when I move it to the center of the building, it will cover out the back door where the tour buses park. :-) And the firmware doesn't suck either. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
