Yes this is the Colman Gillespie patent which Wesley and friends [member Stivep]have done much work with.

I do like also this little area from Jerry's page  where he posts some historical comments.

Your (Mostly) Dead Predecessors
"Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible." (Lord Kelvin, president, Royal Society, 1895)

"I think there is a world market for maybe five computers." (Thomas Watson, chairman of IBM, 1943)

"There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in their home." (Ken Olsen, president, chairman and founder of Digital Equipment Corp., 1977)

"Airplanes are interesting toys but of no military value." (Marshal Ferdinand Foch, French commander of Allied forces during the closing months of World War I, 1918)

"Professor Goddard does not know the relation between action and reaction and the need to have something better than a vacuum against which to react.

"Landing and moving around on the moon offer so many serious problems for human beings that it may take science another 200 years to lick them." -- Science Digest, August, 1948.

"X rays are a hoax." "Aircraft flight is impossible." "Radio has no future." -- Physicist and mathematician Lord Kelvin (1824-1907)

"I think there is a world market for maybe five computers." -- Thomas Watson, Chairman, IBM, 1943.

This is very interesting. The only fallback is the device is radio active. This same concept could be used with just frequencies.  Kind of like the legendary car Tesla was said to have turned in to an electric powered car.
