Testing the TK Tar Baby

[TinselKoala]

Guys,

I always know when I've hit a home run.  That's when FTC and picowatt start posting reams of text in the hopes of closing the page.  LOL

Regards,
Rosemary

YOU are the one bloviating and again making distortions, lies, and insults. YOU are the one trying with all your might to get this thread closed because your ego is threatened by what you are reading here.

I made NO conspiracy allegations.  I merely stated that you and picowatt and TK have a 'mission' to deny.  But you're right.  I am well aware of a conspiracy.  I'd need to be utterly naive to assume otherwise.  Why else would TK and picowatt be working so long - SO MANY HOURS - at this?  It's beggars belief.  If this were simply about the delusions of a little old lady - then?  Let me do my test 'unmolested'.  Because it will simply FAIL - if you're opinion is also based on 'belief' or, as you put it - 'the real truth'.  Of COURSE there's a conspiracy.  And it's CRITICAL that this work of ours is disparaged.  And my name along with it.

Priceless. Making conspiracy allegations while claiming not to make them, in the same breath.

I work long hours at this, Rosemary, because YOU ARE A LIAR and I will not have it. Like I said many times before... if you had simply corrected your bogus calculation the first time it was pointed out to you and posted a correction and a retraction of the conclusion based on it... I would have walked away at that point and let you hang yourself by your own petard in peace. But you did not do that... instead you insulted me and everybody else who tried to tell you how wrong you are. And you continue to lie and misinterpret and put words in people's mouths that they did not say. You also are lying about the COP>17 work as well.
So now you've engendered my ire, and I won't quit until you do.

You have made direct threats against me... some have even called them death threats.... and if you ever DO find out my identity and start annoying my family, my friends, or my employers..... there will be consequences for you, I promise you that.

TK,

Have you decided not to try the test with the entire battery string decoupled and added Batt+ wire?

PW

No, I've not decided that. I'm still experimenting with decoupling caps. I would prefer to do it across the entire battery string because that would be most comparable to the other data I've got. But I will likely do it both ways anyway... if I can maintain my enthusiasm in the face of the latest rounds of lies and distortions and threats from Ainslie.

TK,

You might consider beefing up the batt- lead to your board.  Try multiple runs of short wire (tightly bundled individually insulated parallel runs is sometimes better for reducing inductance than going with a large wire)  Do you have any braid? (works very well).  Of course you could always drag out some copper pipe.

PW

Thanks... if I were testing some important bit of RF gear or trying to develop an improvement to my SSTC or Hodowanec Gravity Wave Detector... I'd probably do just that. But I'm making a Tar Baby, that performs just like NERD in all significant respects.
Yes, I have braid in several sizes, Litz wire, copper pipe and even flat copper ribbon, for serious work involving LARGE cap discharges where inductance MUST be minimised for complete power coupling to the load.  Did I ever show you my wire explosion work? Probably not, sorry, I'll see if I can dig it up.

TK,

Go to your happy place now...

I think all the work you have put into this will have more value for readers here and elsewhere than as it just pertains to this circuit.  For example, and as but one instance, there have been JT type circuits that also exhibit a neg mean pwr when measured with a 'scope with math functions.  I suspect that just about any oscillator with a fair degree of inductance in its supply leads, and with the battery voltage taken from a point removed by the battery via that inductance, will likely also produce a neg mean pwr number.

If nothing else, your work will answer many questions regarding such a measurement and demonstrate that a neg mean pwr measurement, taken under similar conditions, cannot by itself be considered evidence of, well, how about we call it NCO (non-conventional operation) just to avoid semantic wars.

Hang in there,

PW
