Hello Ted,

The following is a copy of my last msg to Ted, sent much earlier today. I have
not yet received a reply.

Ted,

While I respect your wish to not respond, I have no other choice but to respond,
because I'm trying to help you here with respect to legal problems you may
encounter down the road if you insist on telling prospective buyers that your
antenna outperforms conventional antennas due to a modified relationship between
the E and H fields. Sometime in the future the truth will come out that the EH
relationship you claim is invalid, destroying your credibility. This is what I
don't want to happen.

You stated that no one can claim fraud if the antenna does what you say it does.
But Ted, the problem is that it doesn't.

I pointed out that hundreds of patents have been declared invalid in the courts
because the concepts they portrayed were found later to be invalid. In these
cases the patent examiners simply did not recognize the invalidity of the
subject when they granted the patents.

You said you presented proof of performance to the examiner. That you did, and
the engineering report you submitted was very well done. The procedure your
consulting firm used is exactly the same as what I used when I was in that
business years ago.

But Ted, your proof of performance proved only that the antenna radiated as
indicated by the measured data--it did NOT prove that the antenna was performing
with the in-phase E and H field relationship that you claim. And that is the
problem. Your statement that everything you say about the EH antenna is valid is
easily proven wrong, as I have already done in my previous email.

In your reply to my email you said the pattern distortion was due to to a power
line. I must remind you that the radiation from your antenna is vertically
polarized, while the wires of the power line are horizontal. With the quadrature
relationship between the antenna and the power line how can there be sufficient
coupling between them to distort the pattern of the vertically polarized field
radiated from the antenna?

That being said, Ted, I will bother you no longer, but I sincerely hope you'll
reconsider my comments, and cease claiming that the E and H fields are rendered
in phase by the lagging current in the power delivered to the antenna.

Walt, W2DU
