I want to go to a show with a Hendrix or Beach Boys 8-track in the player and make it look like that it's coming thru the 6x9 speakers in the rear shelf, but have the same CD in the glove box, going thru about 800 watts worth of amps. Say "Look, who says those old 8-tracks don't crank!"
With a few dollars worth of ham radio equipment installed in your truck, you can key up a mic and whatever you say will come out of the kids system.
Of course, thats a quick way to loose your ametuer radio operators licence.
I've heard of a guy using a high power amp and transmitter to "jam" remote control airplane signals when the people were buzzing his house. They found out it was him and he ended up facing criminal charges.
Of course, in some areas there are noise ordinances, so building a monster system in your truck to out power the "ugga bugga" music would probably just land you a ticket.
Thats why I like living out in the country. Only noise I hear is the occasional cattle "moo" and the humming of distant Farmall M's.
