Lords of the Ring

[gn0stik]

OK, well I got sick of watching, and I bought three of these.

.2hz - 2mhz

Should be able to find the three frequencies with these.

Might only need two but why take the chance.

$280 for all three, when I called them and ordered over the phone. Should take 4 days to get here, or so.

Now the problem of space. With my 5 channel scope, and these guys, I need a pretty good amount of space for my lab, and I have NONE. My house is full, and the kids aren't leaving any time soon. Although it is getting close to summer, and I could have them set up shop in the back yard.

Ugh. Roadblocks, roadblocks.

We're looking at a new house right now, and it has more space but it would be a while even in that case before I could really get started.

So my wife has me in the dog house and this won't help. Spent too much money on this stuff she says. Well, hopefully one day it'll save us a few power bills, I says. But the new house has gas appliances she says. Didn't think of that I says.

Cant win for tryin.

Rich, all us married guys are in the same rubber life-raft I think... and the wives are circling with hunting knives.... 
I've been scouring the web for such a deal that you found, so if my elenco 9600k goes toes up I have a backup...I find the further I return to electronic projects.. the more I wish I got my father's stuff that he had in his lab.... (kicking myself). Thanks for the indirect help!

i asked about crystals a while ago has anyone done any thing with them? do they not flip flop or ossoliate can they not be trigured by a magnet ? im sure that they will find there way sometime to our eapairments or could you not put a pluse into a crystal and it would make an echo of the pluse i know verry little about electronics but im sure that there only a few electroincs involved with the tpu the coil is the biggie and im sure we have all seen many working coils already!! @ rich do you realy think you need those expencive freq generators? i dont think you do but agin i know verry little about electronics

IS, probably not in a working TPU but they will be priceless for experimentation. As far as being expensive, I got three decent ones for the price of what one normally costs. And that is shipped. Not to mention they are brand new, no used govt surplus like my scope. I know SM says no mass circuitry, just knowlege of how the coils interact with eachother, but it will be good for research.

Raptor, No problem man, glad to help. Keep your ear to the ground with regards to the wife. No too many late nights "tweaking" as my wife likes to say.

Oh, and for those of you who would like a deal on multimeters. Wall mart has some decent auto ranging ones in the automotive section, little red bugger. Pretty good deal at 25 bucks. That one's courtesy of Cavetronics.

Regards,
Rich

mabe i missed somthing but are our freqs not based  on our coil and will a scope not tell you what freq we will need and after we figure out what the freq is for the coil could you not put a crystal to give you 2 freqs? with a 10 hz diffrence between the freqs and when the come togather will the 3rd freq not make the center collector ring? so if you plused the 2 freqs in 1 wire in 2 dirrections it would create a cancled magnetic flux the freqs we put in to our control windings must make them resonate so should our windings control ones should the bucking coils not be tuned diffrently 1 to the first freq and the other to the second freq and those 2 combined freqs should = the collector to make it resonate

but mabe im just thinking too much but i dont think so
