- Maybe not. But that's not certain. The enclosed air spaces would certainly
provide some damping but high frequency vibrations may pass better than
expected. And the modulation of the LASER light on the inner pane of 3 MAY
not be totally absorbed by the outer ones. If all 3 reflect with veru
roughly the same magnitide and the outer ones are far less modulated the
signal level may still be enough to be useful.

Lots of "mights" and "maybes" there, but the whole area is a black art
already.

I wonder if metalised solar film on the outer layer is a help or a
hindarance :-).

"Maybe" you could reflect RF off such a layer and be back to the original
Russian bug general area.
(They had an RF powered modulated resonant circuit with retransmission on a
harmonic.

Great seal bug:

Good detail and picturs here.
Their basic description of operation doesn't totally match Peter Wright's.

The Gary Powers U2 shoordown censure vote followed immediately after this.
Only Poland voted with the USSR.
Who can say if / how much the bug influenced the voting results?
