Years ago, 1950’s, I received radio in my teeth. I had braces and fillings, I had to stand on THAT street corner, and only picked up one station. I surmised it was similar to the effect of an old crystal set radio. I also picked up that station on the crystal set. The signal was never clear like a modern radio, but was definitely there.

When the test was ran, they used unmodulated RF. In other words, their radio station was “transmitting” dead air. Looks like Jamie and Adam need a modulated transmitter using music or voice, and retest. After all the carrier carries the signal to your radio, but it’s the modulation you want to hear!

JS, you should probably google bone conduction…..

P.S. A tooth filling does not have a speaker of any kind, so unless your brain can read radio waves, hen it is impossible to discern anything at all from a signal, even if the filling does pick it up.

About the radio waves, a tooth filling is probably too small, but just about anything else of signifigant size will probably work. I have used wires, aluminum foil, and even my own arm and hand to adjust the tuning of my radio. It’s a piece of crap.

Can the penny dropping from a tall building injure a person if it hits on his head?

The hair in you hairbrush was pulled out, it didn’t shed. **fur is defined by the Oxford English Dictionary as “the short, soft hair of certain animals” whereas hair is defined as “any of the fine thread-like strands growing from the skin of mammals and other animals, or from the epidermis of a plant.Poodle “hair” is “hair” in that it keeps growing like hair on our heads, whereas “body hair” is technically “fur”….it only gets so long then stops, and naturally sheds periodically.

In reference to the Microwaving untensils
this happened to myself, and what they should have tested it while there was flamable food and/or a napkin in the microwave
just a thought
