American interpretation
 
Many on this newsgroup are aware of my views on radiation which I then
took to the QRZ antenna page because of the fraustration created by
lack of knowledge of equilibrium by the average american.
I have now run into another interpretation by americans which differ
from the european aspect and that is Newtons third law with respect to
reaction . Definitions on the net view this law as an equal and
diametrically opposite force where Newton never used the word
"diametrically". English law is based on the intention provided by the
words of the law such that it becomes unchanged thru time. American
law does not define "intention" thus the law can and does change over
time creating appeals against the intent of words.
One definition of Newton's law on the net shows two skaters pushing
against each other as an illustration of the law. But Newton's
"intent" was in the olde english where "opposite" was viewed in a
different way.
If you view a helicopter the front rotor is in a horizontal plane and
rotating clockwise thus per Newton the resulting action is a rotator
at the rear that is rotating in a "vertical " plane and rotating
counter clockwise to maintain equilibrium. Another example is a
caramel bar that is placed under tension which produces a force at
right angles that narrows the cross section and the sample fails in
shear at 45 degrees ( vector resultant of the two forces)
I bring this up because of what I have stated earlier about radiation
on this newsgroup, where the applied force is electrical on a radiator
and per Newton the reaction is at right angle to that force which is
called the displacement current ( capacitive magnetic field). No
wonder Einstein gave up on the pursuit of radiation because as a
german had no understanding of olde english and thus was looking for a
equal and diametrically opposite force in his search for the "weak
force." He was correct in his prediction of it's presence with respect
to radiation but, unfortunately, was looking in the wrong place and
thus relativity was born!

It is highly unlikely that Newton would have known Old English which went
out of use in the 12th Century, he probably would not have even known Middle
English, unless he was a avid reader of Chaucer. Modern English had been in
use and developing since the 1500's, and by the time that Newton was
postulating his theories in the late 1600's Modern English was that language
of the day. However, scientific papers were written in Latin as this gave
them a universal coverage amongst the scientific population.

If you can understand it, it's Modern English.
Here's an example of Anglo Saxon English (Olde English for
Art): "Se halige Andreas him to cwaeth: 'Thine stefne ic gehiere, ac
ic ne wat hwaer thu art.'" Since Art knows "Olde English" he can
translate it for you.
Here's an example of Middle English from Robert Manning of Brunne's,
_Handlyng Synne_: "Ther were twey men of holy wyl That levyd togedyr
withouten yl, Alone in an ermytage, And as meke as bryd in kage; The
toon men call Eutycyus, The touther hyght Florentius."
(In both examples I substituted 'th' for the old thorn character.)
Hope this helps.

No!

King's (Queen's) English is used to describe 'correct' English, as opposed
to slang or poor grammar etc..

The English in the King James Bible is correctly described as Early Modern

Many adulterers are stoned already...

Of course it is a little difficult to figure out just what an adulterer
is anyhow. If you raid a neighboring village, you can take the women as
slaves and wives, somehow it was okay for Job's daughters to get him
drunk and boink him. Go figure...

Good grief.. :/ I read through about 75% of that.. You can't debate
a subject
with Art. Tom asks him to simply show one device he has designed using
this new fangled Gaussian theory, then Art claims Tom is "dissing"
him,
kicking sand in his face, or whatever other assault Art conjures up in
his
mind. :/

But he also alters facts to suit his whim, conjures non events out of
the
thin air, and other feats of internet skill.
He whines because we ask him to define how he uses the term
equilibrium
in respect to antennas.
But then he runs off to web page Q and whines that everyone asks him
the definition of the word itself.. This is an oft used tactic of many
that
wish to confuse the audience at hand.

He runs off to web page Q and tells all that some great wizard from
MIT
laid out a bunch of math to prove his theory.
This is an outright deception, because I was there, I saw the exchange
and the wizard from MIT never gave any real math at all.
In fact, when questioned about a few points by Richard Clark, the
great wizard from MIT took off, never to be heard from again.
And he never gave any math at all as far as Art's design.
So this event can be labeled as "the big lie" as far as I'm concerned.

I'm all for antenna experimentation, but after several years of
tinkering I have learned a couple of things.
And so far they have never been proved wrong. Even by Art, or
even the great wizard from MIT.

#`1 There is no free lunch.
#2 You can't polish a turd and make it a diamond.

Art claims to do both, but as always, refuses to provide a working
model that can be tested against known benchmark antennas,
or he provides a design which does not work as claimed.
Like the short "contra wound" contraption I've seen a picture of.
He claims it is a viable antenna for 160m, and will be quite
efficient.
Heck, I don't even have to test it. I can just look at it and tell
you it will be a dud compared to any decent antenna.
But this is OK. It's not my design, and it's not my job to prove
the design actually works.
That is Art's job, but Art refuses to do it.

If I had a design, I would want to test it against antennas with
known properties. Art refuses. This is why he thinks many of
these off the wall theories and designs work.
He will never actually do the tests to confirm the performance.
I bet he doesn't even have any reference antennas on his
property, like say a 160m dipole, or a 1/4 wave monopole.
How can one advocate a design or theory without even testing it?

To sum, Art is like a dog that chases it's tail all day long. :/
That's my interpretation, and I'm sticking with it.

You can't translate something you don't read or understand. The media often
does something like that, it is called "commentary" or roughly translated:
"subterfuge", "lying" or "manipulation" depending on the intent.

BTW look to John Chapter 8. Seemingly the law is clear but condemnation
isn't required.

Hi Mark,

Just to balance this (and it is like trying to balance a stack of
crystal champagne glasses on a trampoline), Art's MIT galahad wandered
into the word game of Art's. The term Gauss' Law exists in the math
of Maxwell's equations (and Art will probably stop reading at this
observation to crow vindication).

Maxwell took the static law of Gauss and applied a time variable (what
Art claims is his own invention) AND then Maxwell named his elaborated
mathematics "Gauss' Law."

Our MIT galahad jumped ship when I pointed out that his own reference
made this same point in terminology and described its derivation
exactly as I have above. To give credit to the unfortunate galahad,
Maxwell's form of "Gauss' Law" is perfectly good math (duh), and what
Art describes is close enough if you ignore his juvenile chest
thumping over his intellectual property rights (dick waving).

We have since seen this word salad Art's offered garnished with
particals seasoned with a weekend farce.

Arts design is not origonal, it was around in the 60s and 70s as a CB
radio joke. It rated up there along with burying a dipole a 1/4 wl
deep in the ground.. Unlike the buried antenna this joke was
especially good because sometimes it wold work just well enough to
work some skip and then you would hear the guy talking about this
great antenna he had

Normally I wouldn't care less if someone wanted to design an
RF load with inferior qualities. It's a semi-free country..
But Art insists on making up new theory to promote these
wonders of mutt UK/Ill. technology. That's the rub..
But I imagine your testing scenario could apply to him.
IE: He hears a station using his wonder stick as a receiving
antenna, so he decides it surely must be as efficient as a dipole.
Course, on those low frequencies almost anything can be used
for a receiving antenna.
I've come to the conclusion that calling Art an antenna designer
would be akin to calling Festus Hagen a speech therapist. :/

That contradicts the Old Testament. Which is true?

As Jesus was the fulfillment of the Law, his choice to forgive is what is
true.
The penalty was paid. There was a death for the adultery.

Funny you should mention it, that was on TV this past weekend. A true
classic.

"Darling, could you loofah my stretch marks?" I still cringe during
that part.

On the topic:


When I was a little kid, 9 or 10 I think, I had an old cathedral radio
that had shortwave on it. Found it in the attic.

I wanted to experiment with antennas. First I put the typical short
straight wire on it. Then I saw a science book that had a big dish
antenna on it.

I thought "Wow - if this thing can hear signals from satellites millions
of miles out in space, imagine what it can do with those shortwave signals.

So I made a little dish antenna out of copper wire and aluminum foil,
around a foot in diameter, and put it on top of the radio. It worked,
kinda. Continuing to learn, I found what a longwire antenna could do for
performance.


Point is, some 40 years later, I see something sort of like what I did
as a 9 year old kid being talked about again. I suspect it will work
just about as well now as it did then. Which is to say - not very well.

I had an excuse though.

Of course it is a little difficult to figure out just what an
adulterer is anyhow. If you raid a neighboring village, you can take
the women as slaves and wives, somehow it was okay for Job's daughters
to get him drunk and boink him. Go figure...

Just what makes you think its supposed to be ok?



It wasn't exactly condemned now was it?

Not meaningless and irrelevant. The law is to be considered and respected,
but is not the main point. The Jews asked for the law because they were too
afraid of the voice of God. Obedience to his voice would have been more
pleasing. God seems to be in tune with what we need but there is no way we
are going to get in the way of His plans. Jesus was the right hand of God
reaching out to us. If that doesn't strike you with awe, and it is all
meaningless to you, then you have no heart and morality is what you make up
just like the animals. Essentially a "heathen".

And you wonder why children who have been taught they are no more than
"evolved primordial soup" go to school with "Natural Selection" T-shirts and
kill as many as they can for sport. And why abortion is being promoted as a
painless way to make genocide acceptable. I pray America and its people
finds their way back to God before He sends his blessing elsewhere.

As far as Newton's theory... I thought he dealt primarily with forces.
Works well with things like magnetism, gravity and mechanics, but when you
introduce AC and antenna theory, it becomes very complex and the pages start
to fill with Math. Not easy to explain in a news post. I have yet to see
any of the Math in these posts, which speaks to the fact that everyone is
too lazy to do more than talk about it.

Because its not meaningless and irrelavent. Its there to show you why Jesus
had to come. He is the fulfillment of the Law. If He is the fullfillment,
then you have to understand what is in the Law and why He had to fulfill it.
The OT is there to point to Jesus in every book.

Uh, if you read closely, thats a narrative of what took place. Life
happens, good and bad. This is what the Bible is about, the good, the bad,
and the ugly. It has nothing to hide about people and they wrong they do. If
God doesnt jump in and throw down a thunderbolt or two, you think that means
He thinks its ok? Im sorry, but you really dont understand much about God
or the Bible by showing that kind of thinking. Surely youre not that naive.
I think youre just biased, which is ok, but at least admit it.

We have a lot of things declared as abominations in the bible, we have a
lot of things on the OT that condemn people to death also. Considering
how some of these things are latched onto by those who would promote
themselves as the holy these days, I find it a little amusing. I also
see those folks more as Pharisees.

If you want to know my bias, read the Sermon on the Mount. Most of the
rest is dross.

Pure heresy! There's no way for you to know whether that is true or
not. You're wasting your time trying to find purpose in religious
scripture. As Alexander Pope wrote in his An Essay on Man: Epistle II:
"Know then thyself, presume not God to scan, The proper study of
mankind is man"

Dangit, Cecil! You managed to scare another one out from under his rock.
You know you aren't going to do anything but start an argument when you
use logic and reason on a true believer. Christians have been fighting
and arguing with each other, and killing each other since before the
time of Arius over such things as whether non-Jewish Christians should
be circumcised, and whether or not Christ was created by God or
eternally co-existent with Him. If you're going to start an eternal
religious thread, you can at least discuss why Nature is explainable
using differential equations, or why evolution has produced so many
religious nuts.

I'm sorry, Tom. From the beginning of creation,
God knew I was eventually going to make that
posting so I didn't have any choice. I hope God
knows that I am now going to stop doing that. :-)
