SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the feasibility of using an electromagnetic transducer to melt ice from a distance. Participants suggest alternatives such as normal radiating heater elements and infrared heat lamps, while cautioning against the dangers of using microwave or radio wave transducers due to the potential for severe internal injuries. The thread was ultimately locked due to safety concerns regarding the construction of powerful transmitting devices.
