Abstract: An environmental waste water filtering system, including a bucket, the inside of which tapers into a funnel portion that leads to a strainer. The funnel has an exit tube that extends 3 inches below the bucket wall and may be inserted into a drain such as a toilet drain pipe. The inside of the bucket and funnel portion forms a fluid debris chamber. When fluid containing particulate matter is poured into the fluid debris chamber, the particulate matter is removed from the fluid portion as the fluid passes through the strainer and then into the toilet drain pipe. Once all fluid drains from the fluid debris chamber, the captured debris may be poured into a trash bag and disposed of. Optionally, a disposable straining filter bag may be positioned in the fluid debris chamber so that even finer particulate matter is removed from the fluid for disposal with the bag.

Abstract: A channelizing receiver is provided with a plurality of channel receivers for monitoring respective segments of a frequency band being monitored by the channelizing receiver. Each channel receiver includes a channel processor for detecting an electromagnetic signal, measuring the peak amplitude of the electromagnetic signal and comparing this peak amplitude with the peak amplitudes for the electromagnetic signal detected by adjacent channel receivers. Data responsive to a detected signal is transmitted from a channel receiver only if the channel receiver's measured peak amplitude is higher than that for the adjacent channel receivers. The data include an estimate of the frequency and bandwidth of the detected signal made by the channel receiver transmitting the data based upon an assessment of the relative peak amplitudes.
