You're a hoot EM! Nice road trip.

You know one thing that troubles me about the energy capture idea in the 5 to 6 kHz range, is why one wouldn't be more interested in the 60 to 120 Hz range where obviously the energy levels are much higher. Your audio from the pickup coil clearly shows the 60 Hz dominance does it not?

Ok,  I deleted the longer video which youtube would not allow, and I edited it down to just about 9 minutes, so they should accepted it now.

Here's the link:

Enjoy !!

P.S.  wattsup, the meter is my own design, it's just a pickup coil with about 100+ turns on a ferrite and amplified about 100 times or so, works great except when excessive fields are present, then distortion sets in.

as for Marco suggestion - dangerous under power line

Great vid!

The one thing that sticks out, for me....

The bursts, clipping, and distortion heard sound very familiar to me. As a HAM, I'm always fighting interference from BPL (Broadband over power lines). The noise you recorded sounds the same.

Surely BPL wasn't around when 'you know who' lived there so maybe it wasn't BPL then.

I think he's plugged directly into the camera's MIC input and the sound you are referring to is clipping of its front end electronics. We're not going to hear anything but power noise from those lines as long as power is coursing through them.

EM, Why don't you build a BP filter centered on 5 or 6 kHz and try comparing the amplitude with the 60 Hz area. I think you may find it way down in the dirt.

Hello all,

@EM

nice video.

@All

this sound will produce your TPU when you mix 2 frequencies that are much higher. Maybe 1 is over 200kHz and the other less then 200kHz ( I really dont remember). No, I didnt say 200kHz + 205kHz or 206kHz. Not in this way.

Its also not a problem to hear sounds as you wish. You must only turn on your radio when you pulse your TPU. Of course, no power lines near your TPU.
