Congratulations for the continuation of one of the most retarded

John understands this stuff extremely well: I've argued detector issues
with him on rec.antiques.radio+phono in the past. John obviously doesn't

I am not a university trained electronics engineer with a sound
backgound of mathematical ability.

Yeah, what a great pronouncement for a hobbyist news group after one
