Oh, that was substantial! If you and Olin haven't pointed out the error, I 
would have assumed that I won't be able to use a super-regenerative receiver 
in my application.

There is also a chance that a meteorite may hit me in the head. :-)

I'm not communicating with the Voyager, nor is my device controlling a baby

undesired operation caused by a 5 W transmitter 250 meters away, with an 
highly directional antenna directed straight at my house.
