4) Einstein even noted that the properties of the ether where/are
"unknowable", at least at the time he made such statement(s) and to this
present day.

Take an aluminum disk with a hole in the center to match an old wax
record and the hole the size of an old records. Tape a magnet to the
phonograph arm. Place the magnet/phonograph-arm on the aluminum disk and
spin it up to 78 rpm. The magnet floats ...

Magnetic fields/fluxes--electric-currents generated in the aluminum disk
are using "work energy" to float the magnet and maintain it at a
respectable height above the disk. This is not a "negligible"
phenomenon, it is used to levitate magnetic trains in Japan.

In our antennas, a certain amount of power IS doing a "like"
affect/effect. It IS wasting some amount of power in doing this ... it
is DOING "something" we are NOT taking into account.

Is this all related to the "weak forces" mentioned by Einstein? Probably.

Are these forces ignored in most if not all antenna calculations (or,
hidden in "magic numbers?") Yes.

Will new breakthroughs in antenna design result from the exploration of
these forces. I would guess that answer to be anywhere from maybe to
probably ...

And, there are even more of our "calculations" which ignore, or cloak in
magic numbers, such "abnormalities" ... like the old maps of ancient
mariners--these are areas, on these maps (antenna books, antenna
software, formulas, charts, etc.) with areas which are marked with a
peculiar notation, "In these areas lie monsters!" And they are shunned
and made "fun" of by most the members of this newsgroup; strange, if you
ask me ...

Well you are spot on in general terms but the numbers are there.
Farady, newton and others recognised that the Universe is within a
bounday
and from this vectors form. Each of the masters used this theorem ie
thrust and counter thrust
in ALL oif l their work So they would calculate all forces around a
point until a polygon of vectors were formed and where it was a closed
circuit which signified equilibrium.Now all the masters aproached the
laws of electromagnetism in the same way and each with the final check
with respect to equilibrium as the final check. All of the masters
aproached electromagnetics from different perspectives and there were
a lot of them. But every one of them came up with a polygon of vectors
that did not complete the circle tho all had the same missing vector
space. So they included this space us a vector the creation of which
was unknown but certainly present otherwise equilibrium would not
prevail. Foucault showed the rotative force, Corriolis, in his work
with the long pendulum which is why on my page I used a ploy from the
pendulum to dampen the response of the antenna vibrations. IN YOUR
CASE YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THE AETHER. But the eather can never be found
since boundaries within the universe exist with each other like a
bubble bath since our universe is just one bubble of many just like a
mass of frogs spawn.
Getting back to the weak force which is a vector of small length and
angle in the big picture of things such as with eddy current brakes as
you pointed out, but in the bigger scheme of things the same forces
act on earth as with a tornado where magnetic fields are huge
where elevation easily occurres within the vortex. In England after a
heavy storm it is not unusual to find vlumps of frogs that had fallen
from the sky because they consist of water a diamagnetic material,
that is drawn up into the sky and fall when their temperature falls to
a certain point. So with electromagnetism it can now be shown that the
weak force searched for by physicist is a direct result from a
magnetic fieldor force always makes a reactionary magnetic field or
force but the originating magnetic field quickly overwelms the
reactionary field (eddy current) which mask their presence.
However ,when the fields are time varying as with high frequency
within the tank circuit the time constant of the circuit makes them
more apparent and thus must be included in any laws revolving around
equilibrium.
The importance of this finding to me is that where the yagi is formed
around collective coupling and recoupling to infinity,
radiators or arrays based on a border based on equilibrium achieves
maximum radiation as a system where the coupling system
can never get to infinity. A small difference ofcource but one has
finality where the other does not.
You may not follow my writing as it is always poor but hopefully you
will see a small smigeon of scientific discovery in what I am
presenting and how this weak force search by all finally comes into
play because of the inter phase changes that occur in a tank
circuit..Now I know it is impossible for some on this forum that
cannot possibly follow the above b ut I do take delight when they do
make a "authorative" posting as part of free speech which highlights
the degree of expertise they reallyhave despite the self perceived
qualities that they seek for to impress.By the way John I do have
problems with the validation aspect of posting possibly because of
spot eye problems. Does this affect you in any way?I can never get
thru ia just one try

The most important measure of an antenna is the amount of field intensity
it
can produce at a given distance in a given direction, per watt of applied
r-f power. So far you have written nothing specific about this for the
"Unwin" antenna.

Note that a transmission line feeding a 20 dB series attenuator attached
to
the input of a 100% efficient antenna will show very high return loss to
the
r-f source ( 40 dB plus the twice the cable loss). But that antenna
system
will radiate little of the available EM energy, nonetheless.

Could you please comment on the measured or at least the calculated
RADIATION CHARACTERISTICS of your antenna, compared to a matched 1/2-wave
dipole at that frequency (or an isotropic radiator), and tell us how you
arrived at them?

If you can do that, and your results can be scientifically duplicated by
others, you will have removed the source of a lot of the skepticism you
read
here and in your similar threads on eHam.net.

Otherwise it will be "more of the same," which (let us hope) is or should
not be your goal.

RF


No.More of the same is not my goal nor is it to respond to every
request.
The mathematision or doctorrate type can do it solely by mathematics.
The computor program is built on those mathematics. and a antenna
program
will ALWAYs produce radiators in equilibrium which means at an angle.
Even without
a optimiser you can do it on Eznec but it would be laborious but it
can be done.
People are enamoured with the Yagi so thay always insert planar type
figures thus the
program which is designed around equilibrium. If the goal is small
efficient radiators then
equilibrium must be present starting with a full wavelength that can
then be placed in a small volume.
It is the smaller efficient radiators and arrays that I have pursued
since radiation per unit length is solely a measure
that correlates with resistivity and it is that where my conclusions
lie. Gain itself is a whole different matter
cannot show it's worth


in other words, he hasn't, he won't, and he doesn't care... therefore, more
of the same handwaving and meaningless bafflegab. he doesn't have the math
background to present his theory in any kind of a coherent form, nor of
course could he ever measure his neutrino/carbon vortex crud because it
doesn't exist, so he keeps going back to the same old crap... its not even
funny any more, just sad.

If we are not equally open to all areas mentioned in your last post, I
would at least grant you the right, interest, etc. in your
explorations--there is "something" there alright ...

Your quoted text, above, I see different. The "universe" is like a
hollow sphere. This spheres structure is penetrated by a LOT of holes.
Just inside the spheres structure is a rubber bladder (balloon if you
will.) This rubber bladder is under pressure, until it has expanded out
though the holes in the spheres structure and formed spheres made from
the material of the rubber bladder. In one of those lies our universe ...

Sorry I could not think of a better way to suggest this idea in time for
this post ... previously I have only held it as a mental picture to
myself ...

And, you are correct:

Aether = Eather = Ether

The first two I just consider "old world", and/or English spellings.
Since we Americans have "murdered" the Queens English, why not this word

David,
at this stage in life it would very difficult for me to go thru the
math from the start
in the exercise of adding a a radiator and a time varying field to a
Gaussian field
to show it is the same asMaxwell equation, very few of us are. But
when you come across a theorem
that makes sense to you it is gravy added when a mathematician comes
along to supply the mathematics
which you can follow in part. Then when antenna computor programs
supply the ingredients of such an analysis
which proves the same you have to get excited. When you then apply
what is revealed in such a trail and succeed in making a smaller
antenna that anybody has made you stop questioning what you have
found. As an aside, where do you view the atributes of an antenna with
near constant SWR reponse would find most use. I know most will jump
to dummy load but this I ask in serious form.

Arnold B. Bailey disagrees in "TV and Other Receiving Antennas". On page

"The directional action of a rod antenna best can be analyzed by
considering the rod as consisting of many tiny sections, connected
together to form a metallic circuit. A typical small segment X - X is
shown in Fig. 7-28 B; its position in a half-wave center-fed antenna is
indicated in part (A) of the figure. Each tiny section may be taken
sufficiently short compared to a wavelength so that the electromagnetic
wave acts practically instantaneously throughout one section, and hence
induces a substantially uniform current in that section. Such a short
antenna segment has a simple directional response pattern, indicated in
Fig. 7-28B, which is basic for all directivity calculations, since all
antenns may be considered to be made up of these tiny segments. This
fundamental response pattern varies as the cosine of the angle (which we
shall call theta) between the direction of the incoming wave and the
perpendicular through the center of the segment X - X, as indicated in
part (B) of the figure. If E stands for the value of the field intensity
(strength of the electric vector), then we can characterize the
directional response by the relation Ecos theta, which gives us the
relative magnitude of E for any wave direction relative to the antenna."

You probably have seen the figure-eight pattern of a dipole antenna and
are already aware that maximum response is broadside to the antenna at
its center. If the antenna is tilted away from the perpendicular its
response is diminished. Other antennas have a similar response as all
are made up of elemental segments.

the only use for a constant swr is to keep modern transceivers, that don't

far as gain or f/b or takeoff angle, things that are important to antenna
design. i can take any antenna and give it a flat swr, there used to be a
tuner on the market that did just that, until the league lab x-rayed it and
found it was nothing but a dummy load potted in epoxy. the funny thing is,
people liked it because it did exactly as it claimed, gave a perfect match
across a wide frequency range... they didn't care that it turned a good

can work, as long as you don't have anything better to compare it to... but
I do, so I don't want one.

Richard, I understand where you are coming from since all these books
say the same thing. This says that the majority wins and thus is all
known. Well I disagree with that philosophy but I reckonise it. So I
am pushing my findings until I Art Unwin comes to rest with a
majoritory. Since I have an antenna that duplicates those facts I can
only hope that Industry sees something that they want since money in
this world is the driving force.
I am thinking of placing a sample of a tipped antenna on m y page b ut
I fear that all will then blaime the computor program and or Maxwells
laws. You just can't make horses drink!

David ,Gauss did a lot of work in his life time for which he is

Are you saying that the "Gaussian law of static" was a prime mover of
Maxwells laws.
If this is so why does not Maxwells laws provide the role of particles
in radiation?
From my view point Gauss's contribution was supplied in other ways
that did not include the statics law but then I look forward to you
showing me where I am wrong
