I was walking on the beach when I found an odd lump of something with a few
wires dangling out of it and in the way that you do, I bashed it with a rock
to see what was inside. ;-)

Eventually I dug this out.

It's about 6 x 4 cm and about 5mm thick. It's definitely NOT a mechanical
component and I think it's perhaps from the base of a radio aerial, probably
off a boat. I think originally there would have been a conductor threaded
through the "S".

Can anyone confirm this (just for curiosity's sake)?

It looks like a feng shei detector. I need one of those for my sauna.

Hey,

Come on you guys, you forgot again to put a couple of spaces in the name for
Tuuk,,, Not very smart. And it is obvious the message didn't come from my
server, I don't try to hide.

YOu realize what you did was illegal and unethical, It is called mirrorring
or ghosting. By putting someone elses name in the fields as to look as if it
were them posting. Not very bright are ya.
But it is illegal, not to mention unethical. Did I mention that?

Feng shui ,, not shei,,, again, not very bright are ya.

And also, it is not a feng shui detector because they do not look like that.
Looks more like the cover of a flux capacitor, It is obvious that you
haven't lived with a knowledge improved feng shui life,,, oh so obvious.

And what does Feng Shui have to do with my sauna?

Anyway, thanks for thinking about me, and thanks for trying.

The brass object is a sand casting, are those grooves for water? Glue?
Prevent it from warping? and the holes for bolts.
What is the other side looking like?

Good luck and 73s

Well, I don't do that stuff and agree that it is unethical. But, do you
have a cite for "illegal"?

Hi

Yes, thanks for the question. Yes it is illegal.

Its moral or ethical could be overridden by childish,

But its legality is no question.

No, I don't think it necessary to report this to the server's
administration, no I just figure the boys are having some fun with me. I had
some fun with the boys, now they havin some fun with me.
Touche

Good luck,,, 73s
