Title: Any explanations
Post by tonyboy on May 11^th, 2009, 10:32pm

Try this for an experiment. Go to a distance from your car where the remote won't operate your alarm try it a couple of times to make sure your just out of range. Then put your remote so it's touching your temple, then try it again, see if operates your alarm. I've tried this several times, doesn't work when you point it at the car. But put it to your temple and it works ???. Answer's on a post card plz ;)

Something to do with the lobes in the brain amplifying the signal or some such weirdness :)

Could it be something to do with the fact that the body is a conductor, so amplifies the signal......a bit like a bad radio reception will improve when you hold the aerial...
....& the brain, with all those neurons generating electricity, is a better conductor than the rest of the body, so amplifies it more ;)

Or maybe it's when you zap your head with the remote, rays come out of your eyes ;D

Don't press the buttons too many times whilst out of range though - the code will change and you'll have to re-program it :-)
