Commode diode

As an alternative to this idea, is there a way to send a signal via the computer to do the same? I'm using Windows 98 and have the standard IO's. Any ideas?

What? You wanna make sure the s*it goes down the bog, but can't travel back up in the opposite direction to spray on your butt again? A "commode diode".

Hi, there Wayne down in Chula Vista, I'm up here in Santa Banana, down the road from Dizzyland. Here's what I did to kill the commercials. I built a 555 timer and a RF oscillator that I tuned to the FM station so that when the timer turns it on, it just blots out the audio and all I hear is a dead silence. It's easily made, and will work okay if it's close to the radio. C6 may be hard to find, so use a 22 pF and add a few pF or else a larger coil with more turns to lower the freq. You can also use an inch or two of solid telephone wire tightly twisted together to make a 'gimmick' capacitor that you can then trim to get the right freq. Just solder it across the 22 pF.

Wow! Thanks - Don't know when I can get to it, but the project is now on my 'to do' list.
