Geerling Engineering's experiment with a hot dog radio experiment went viral in March .

The experiment was inspired by a question: What would happen if you ground the hot dog to one of your AM radio towers? We measured SWR, RF forward power, SDR on site, AM field intensity 25km (16mi) away, meat thermals, and taste testing!.

Experiment 5 - Corn Dog Hypothesis: We speculated the corn layer surrounding the hot dog may provide enough insulation to prevent a serious reaction with the tower.

Experiment 6 : Will a meat meant for the 'a.m.' perform any better on an AM radio tower? Breakfast sausage was louder than the rest, and seemed to burn very evenly.
