Is Lindsay?s ?SM? a fraud?

[Gobaga]

I no longer reread the relayed SM words but what was it he said? Something like 'now that is what I call resonance'. What about what everyone else calls resonance?

Perhaps SM was refering to some sort of spatial equivalent to reactive power.  How would a longitudinal wave resonate?  Displacement of the medium - same as sound in air.

Is the capacitative top terminal of a Tesla magnifying transmitter the closed or open end of the column?  (I think Tesla had an image showing the both ends were open but can't find it now to verify.)

Paul,

I don't fully agree with you. The spectrum analyzer was probably not needed or used. If he was using tubes the plate voltage could run up to 600VDC. As far as the spark gap, it could be a matter of a wire falling off and he placed it back on the post. He may have noticed something when the wire sparked.

Just guessing like everyone else

you may be correct   on the mt

ask erfinder to post my hand dwg ....

i was gonna post then stephen moved my stuff....

my original cap charger has 2 open ends.....


hummmm   how do u think i figured out g

ist

the dirrection and connections make a big diff..... 


you must wind it as to repell each feild by 90 deg......  menanig polarity is also  of big consern

build it with 2 wires only!!!!   first to understand how it works.....you then interupt the flow in the 1 wire setup .....the colapse of the one feild speeds up the other.....

They were vertical four coil 90 deg each. I wired them to @otto's classic 4 coil wiring. Pulsed only two wires. lol But that does not matter. Any way you make it, turn it also on its side when checking with the compass.

Oh but it does matter my friend...it matters a great deal, at least for me.  When I saw your spinning compass test I almost fell out of my chair, and I could barely sleep last night  That was the final piece of the puzzle for me to see, like it was in front of me, what's happening and how it works....in 3 dimensions and through time.  NOW I can go to the lab!

One minor question...were the 2 coils you pulsed in the compass test adjacent to each other or on opposite sides of the circle?

More to follow...

     Diodes hmmmm.  I've seen some hockey puck diodes before but I've never seen tubing potted in to cool them before.    I dont see much of a difference between a diode, spark gap, capacitor, tube.  Just different electrolytes.
