This isn't totally related, but here goes:
I've heard a rumor that if you turn the volume all the way up on a cell phone's speakerphone and hold it near the car's RF receiver, and if someone on the other end of the phone triggers that car's remote, the RF signal will actually be transmitted through the phone connection, be picked up by the car, and unlock (or whatever) the car.
Can anyone confirm this? Can cell phone signals even carry that high of a frequency? I personally doubt it, although I have no clue what frequencies those kinds of RF transmitters operate on or what frequency range cell phones have, or even if cell phones can carry any type of RF signal (I have no experience with RF technology, forgive me if this is answered by some fundamental law of RF theory!)
