The Ferrari guys from my story used unhomologably powerful radios with terribly bad antennas.

If it got to work in the Ferrari, it was bad design, if it never go to work in the Ferrari it was wrong application.


Nono, the device was installed above the boxes, where the Ferrari boys came only for one race. The radio is not in the car (there is one of course but that's irrelevant), this one was the stationary one in the boxes.

This is the same as your case of a bus going around an airport and accidentally swept by the radar; or close to a 1MW AM radio transmitter or so.

Disclaimer, it was not actually Ferrari, it is just an example. Ferrari, I really like your cars, please, don't sue me.

Jan, we may and may not agree, but designing to "typical" is a lousy idea, you WILL end up with service calls and an eventual modification.

Don't take it literally. Replace "typical" with whatever standard you want. There is always a case beyond the "whatever standard".
