Why am I the only one that sees this as the likely design? Oh wait Gary sees it too.  Am I making an obvious error here? Where is the patent that talks about the transmittor which is not using this as its power source?

Actually  I think everyone is right .

I  think it has been shown that   it is possable  to feed  power into the coils  from other " hot " spots
I am pretty sure that for  maximum efficency  the  stakes  driven into the  " hot" spots  would need too be tuned for  the specific  site .


I also  remember  pictures   of the  the phone  setup being  used  .  there was clearly  2  stakes set a distance in front  of the   main part of the phone .
I also  believe  that those stakes  would have to be tuned for maximum  efficency   
Maybe they are tuned in  different ways   ( as the power stakes )  ..........maybe  almost the same .

Here is another try. A little better maybe.  Bill

here is a different one-I'm getting kicked off

another try
I don't think the improvement will help but here it is:
same shot as Bill's

still  3  stakes ..........  but look at them close .......it looks like  cloth  around  the top of the rod ......then that cloth wrapped with wire ..........and not very neatly . ........ 

Has anyone  tried taking readings of a dry coil?

I have been drying mine out a few days now.

I was checking it to make  sure it was dry       ( 5 & 6 )

No  amps    No  V DC  ...........but the     polarity  indicator  kept flashing .

I switched   to AC   .05 V

I played  with it for a while   trying to  figure out what was causing the reading .

No  matter what I did  I kept  getting  getting readings in the same  range ........from  .05 to  just over .1V

For a while I thought  it was  acting like a hall effect sensor ........ I could  change the  reading  by holding a magnet near it .....  I  could  get a stable  reading   by holding  the    magnet  a set distance  from the   coil ....... but  when I would   leave the  magnet in contact with the coil  and step back  the   readings  would  go back to  the same as no magnet at all .   

Then    I kind of  gave  up .........and put the magnets away .......When  I reached to turn the meter off .......... the readings  jumped  up  exactly as they did when I was holding the magnet.

Then I noticed that   as I step  closer to it ..........the  readings get  higher ...... standing  about 18 in away   it reads  about 
.05 ....... if I lean over it ......the readings start to rise .

If  I  cup my hands and hold  them just  above it I can get a reading   of   .15 V   

If I touch it .......I get a reading of  around   .175 V

I don't think it  is  static charge  because after  touching it   it goes right  back  to the same  numbers  ........and rubbing my foot on the carpet while holding my had  a fixed  distance   from the coil  maintains  a steady  reading .

connecting  caps to  the coil  didn't  change much ........ the caps seem to dampen the effect a little .......but that is all . 

Anyone  have any ideas about  what  I am reading ?


Anyone else  getting similar  readings?
