You still did not put a stake in the ground, just walked around the
question and then walked away. One more chance before I place you in
"unsure". Where in Maxwell's equations does it refer to "particles" or
do they have no place in his views on radiation?
What is your call sign or do you prefer to remain as a unknown?

Incorrect; I gave a positive answer to the question. My answer was based
on
normal physics and identified what must, therefore, be paraphysical or
nonsense (or both). The equations don't make any reference to particles -
as I'm sure you are aware. As to the views of Maxwell, the person, I
daresay you can make them up to your heart's content without provable
challenge.

I don't much care what category you place me in - you already know how I
categorise people who make up their own versions of physics and expect
other
to believe them ... and sadly some appear to!

My call sign, if I have one, is none of your business.

O.k. So the thread as posted in the title is now closed. On the
question on the Gauss extension this is not understood so that is also
now closed. Insults? Well they can go on for ever as this is the main
attraction for its members.


What do you think gives you the power or the right to close a thread - is
this something written in the Usenet 'code of practice'? Surely, in
practice it will continue until all aspects of discussion have reached their
conclusions and more interesting threads have appeared.

Do yourself a favour Art, visit a technical library, read and try to
understand the real physics on which radio communication has been based. If
you have problems with any of the parts that are well documented then there
will be plenty of folk here who will be willing and able to illuminate,
including some with less time on their hands than myself who don't post very
often but have extensive knowledge. I think you will find it fascinating
how intelligence can be passed between two points in space without any need
for the passage of matter between them - all puns accepted!
