Picture Cathy saying: "This week on Junkyard Wars, we're trying to send a message. Each of our teams is going to build some sort of long-range signalling device using only the materials they can scavenge from our fabulous scrap heap."

telegraph? radio? semaphore? signal lanterns? test at the same distance, measure success by %accuracy of transmission and reception? history of long-range communication

Hey Linda, while there are some great ideas in these posts. There are alot that have already been mentioned. If you scroll down there is a section called "New Challenges". You can cross check yours. Also maybe put all of your ideas on one page numbering them 1-10. it's a bitch having to click back and forth from each of your suggestions.....
