So, considering game relevance, how does your well-equipped operative
deal with one of these things when it's turned on him? With a
searchlight you can shoot it out, but putting a few bullet holes in the
antenna won't impair it that much. Anyone got any data on the
frequencies involved? Doesn't sound much like microwave (specifically
surface pain only). Maybe a conductive mesh in one's clothing, plus a
face-mask ditto?
