bugged as tight as telephones in the Nixon White House. The alarms create a din that can be heard more than 200 yards away. “The name of the game is to scare the robbers off,” said Forster, “The idea is to create as much commotion as possible with screaming sirens and beeps.” He noted that the noisy alarms can also be used to protect barns, tack rooms, campers and outbuildings located some distance from a residence.
Forster’s company also produces fire detectors that react to heat as well as smoke. According to Forster, this type of added protection can be life saving since many fires burn without creating significant amounts of smoke. The heat detectors start transmitting radio signals when the temperature reaches 135 degrees whether smoke is present or not.
If property owners are not at home to hear the alarms, the system can be hooked into the telephone and programmed to ring as many as four numbers, including police and fire departments.
Forster runs his business with the help of his wife Shirley. She studied pre-law at Roanoke College and American Udiversity before working for eight years as a law firm office manager and as sales coordinator in the industrial tube and solid state division of RCA.
