Chapter 703 - Dinner in Los Angeles (2) (1/2)
Sarah gave tracking device which they got out of Jesse's tooth to Felix. ”See what you can find out about this. It came out of a tooth. Don't power it on without a signal blocker, we don't know if anyone is still listening, and it attracts trouble.”
Felix nodded in understanding. ”Anna made sure I have authorization to use equipment in White corp. lab until Orion Enterprise moves.”
Sarah likes that very much. With Felix getting permission to use lab in White corp. he does not need to go to Seattle. ”Great! If you are going to do it when Anna and Jeff are not there, let me know and I can escort you to the lab if needed. Aiden and I have access to those facilities… Also, we need you to make few devices. One is a signal blocker.”
”Anything specific?” Felix is not sure why he needs to design something that already exists, but Sarah knows that signal blockers exist, she just told him not to power up that tracker without one, so she must have some customization requests. Knowing Sarah… it's not going to be a simple task.
When Sarah spoke next, she confirmed Felix's suspicions: ”The ones available have a short range. I want you to maximize range, and to make it adjustable. If it can go to one kilometer radius that will be great. The more the better.”
Felix almost chocked on his drink. ”One kilometer? The best signal blockers are up to one hundred meters, and those are military grade. You are asking me to make that ten times more powerful!”
”Yes. I know you like challenges.” Sarah smiled. ”And also, it will need to have settings for exceptions, so that we can specify what frequencies are being blocked, and which ones are not. It would be good if we can target specific cell phones as well.”
Felix exhaled feeling a headache coming. He likes challenges, but this… might be too much. ”Why do you need something like that?”
Aiden answered this question: ”We want our house to be as a safe place. So that no one can listen in or send signals without our permission.” After this with Jesse, Aiden saw as a necessity to have a 'safe house' which can't be spied upon. ”Idea is that if someone with a tracker enters our property, tracker does not work. Also, we want to be able to block wireless communications without impacting our cell phones. I will provide you with different scenarios so that you grasp the requirements better.”
Felix listened to Aiden's explanation and nodded in understanding, but he has his concerns. ”I'm confident that I can handle electronics, however this is heavy in the physics department.”
”Isn't Damien university professor in physics?” Sophia said between bites of her Caesar salad.
Felix paused for a moment. ”Yes.”
”You can collaborate with him.” Sophia suggested.
Felix thought for some time before nodding. Working with his father, together… it might be fun.
”If you want to bring Damien and his family here, we have plenty of guestrooms in our home. Or you can use our apartment as well. They don't need to stay in the hotel.” Sarah offered, and Aiden confirmed that he agrees with it. Both of them have a good impression of Damien and his family.
Felix rubbed his nose while looking at Sarah. ”You said that there is more than one device…”
