How to Make Your Own UFO Detector

http://lightning.prohosting.com/~agnosto/

If you live in one of the hundreds of areas where multicolored

luminous blobs zip around the night skies like giant fireflies
with a glandular condition, you probably don't need a magnetic
detector.

But if UFOs are a rare sight in your community, there are only
three ways to tell when they are coming. The first method
applies only to psychics. If you have some latent or active
psychic ability you may instinctively sense when a UFO is
nearby. Many people do. These mysterious objects seem to have a
strong connection with the psychic world around us.

The second method is networking. In many places, people simply

phone each other and spread the word that UFOs are buzzing
around. When CB radios were popular, the CB bands were cluttered
with UFO reports during UFO waves or "flaps."

If none of the above apply to you, you might try building a UFO
detector. They are simple to make and they really do work.
During the great waves of the 1960s, several companies
manufactured and sold such detectors.

Everybody in the flap areas seemed to have one perched on their

mantle or kitchen table. When the alarm bell sounded they all
scrambled for the door, running outside so they could utter the
familiar cry: "There goes one!"

How does a UFO detector work?

It is basically a switch that is activated by a sudden change in

the magnetic environment. We are all wading around in invisible
magnetic fields generated by the Earth, by radio and television
signals, and by pulses from power lines and telephone lines. An
outside magnetic influence suddenly entering our well-
established magnetic environment causes a major disruption. The
image on your TV screen may go bonkers as it does occasionally
when an airplane flies directly overhead.

UFO Magnetic Disruptions

In thousands of recorded UFO cases, there are incidents where

major electromagnetic disruptions occur-red. Automobiles
stalled. Electric meters ran amok. Compasses and other sensitive
instruments reacted violently. So you need only build a gadget
sensitive enough to detect a sudden change in your magnetic
environment, and it should work on UFOs. It is really nothing
more than an enhanced compass with a bell or buzzer attached.

You will need the following items:

1) A wire clothes hanger.
2) A pair of pliers that can cut wire.
3) A couple of feet of insulated copper wire.
4) A strong alnico magnet, like one of those circular magnets
you use to stick notes to the refrigerator door.
5) An old doorbell or door buzzer that works on a cheap nine-
volt battery.
6) A battery (nine-volt batteries seem to work best) and battery
holder.
7) A small board or wooden block to mount the whole thing on.

Take your pliers or snippers and cut the coat hanger so you can
bend it into a C-shaped wire about ten inches high. Make a small
hook on the upper end (see photo) and mount it on the board with
thumb tacks or nails.
Now take a piece of insulated wire and strip an inch or so of
the insulation from one end and make a loop. Tie the magnet to
the other end. Hang the loop on the hook on the vertical wire.
Make a larger circular loop about one inch in diameter on
another piece of coat hanger.

Mount this on the board as shown. The magnet now hangs down into
this second loop. Strip the insulated wire where it hangs in the
center of the loop. Now connect the lead wires, bell, and
battery as shown. When the magnet swings, the wire should strike
the loop, complete the circuit and cause the bell to ring. (To
save your battery, remove it when the UFO detector is not in
use.)

Now all you need is a UFO. Put your detector where it won't be
disturbed by normal vibrations, gusts of air, etc. Some people
put them under a large glass jar for protection. When a UFO
visits your area, the powerful electromagnetic waves they
usually emanate will cause the magnet to swing against the wire
ring. This could happen at three in the morning and wake up your
whole household.

If your house is already haunted by mundane spooks, be prepared

for non-UFO alarms. Parapsychologists have found that compasses
and other electrical devices respond when a ghost is present. If
you live in a large city, there may be so many electrical
interferences in your building that the UFO detector will be
useless. For example, the elevator could set it off.
