| Why? The OP may have a valid concern. Unlike the anti theft tags in
use
| today, RFID tags will remain active long after you have purchased your
| merchandise. If these tags are embedded in the goods themselves
(rather
| than in the packaging or price tag) there is the possibility that you
| can be tracked by the serial numbers in the tags that you will be
| carrying.
|
| Frying RFID tags is probably not the best approach. Build a scanner
that

| manually.

and

Yes, but the downpipe from the gutter still has to be a basically
vertical structure and it can and will cause problems for the onion
harvester.
