Show me a way you can detect your mythical electrons coming off the antenna. Or better yet, explain to me why common methods of detecting electrons (fluorescence, phosphorescence, Wilson cloud chamber, electrometer, electroscope, etc) fail to detect your mythical electrons. Cold electron field emission is easy to measure at above 10 V. But without the "infinite source or sink for charge" it do not work. How large is infinite? Does that mean that radio only works when I can't measure it? Channel wrote: "With a Hand Held Radio - the person holding the transceiver is the ground plane. Because the human body is comprised mainly of water, it acts like the missing half of the antenna." Without the "infinite source or sink for charge" a transmitter is gaining a rather large positive charge. Amazing. I put my voltmeter on the case of my HT, and there's no DC voltage when transmitting. Same with various HF transmitters. Perhaps my radio is not infinite enough. Tesla made the electron beam and next the X-rays. Electron beams (cathode rays) were discovered by Johann Hittorf in 1869. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathode_ray X-rays were correctly described by Wilhelm Röntgen in 1895. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray Please have you history recalibrated. There no contradictions: "In April 1887, Tesla began investigating what would later be called X-rays using his own single terminal vacuum tubes (similar to his patent #514,170). This device differed from other early X-ray tubes in that it had no target electrode. The modern term for the phenomenon produced by this device is bremsstrahlung (or braking radiation). It is now known that this device operated by emitting electrons from the single electrode through a combination of field electron emission and thermionic emission. Once liberated, electrons are strongly repelled by the high electric field near the electrode during negative voltage peaks from the oscillating HV output of the Tesla Coil, generating X rays as they collide with the glass envelope. He also used Geissler tubes. By 1892, Tesla became aware of the skin damage that Wilhelm Röntgen later identified as an effect of X rays." From: http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Nikola_Tesla They are connected to the mass (chassis). Where is the chassis on my HT, TV antenna, dipole, satellite antenna, and other antennas that are not grounded? They seem to work equally well with metallic, insulating, and unsupported mounting arrangements. Also, without I ground, I presume aircraft communications also does not work? Now, that we have the requisite science fiction out of the way, could I trouble you to answer my original question. Is your theory that if you repeat the same garbage over and over, eventually someone will believe it? It is theory of Faraday, Lorenz, Marconi, Tesla and Dirac. Some of their early guesses were wrong. It was bad enough that when Lee De Forest had to defend his patents in court, he could not explain how they worked. I don't care if your theory came directly from the radio gods themselves. If your theory cannot stand up to simple scrutiny and real world examples, then it's garbage, no matter from where you excavated it. Anyway, you didn't answer my question (3rd try). Do you believe that repeating the same wrong theory over and over will somehow make it correct? Or perhaps your plan is to wear everyone down with your one line incorrect and unsubstantiated claims, in the hope that we will become tired of your games and go away? Or, are you simply craving for attention? Who is the authors of yours? I haven't presented a theory. I've only shot holes in your theory. I don't need the testimony of dead scientists to demonstrate that an ungrounded antenna still functions and that antennas do not belch electons. Tesla and Marconi proved that antenna must be grounded and that it emmits/gains electrons. Incidentally, if you had a clue, which you apparently do not, you might read up on photons, which are the carriers of electromagnetic force, including RF. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photon Photons are in the teaching program as a simplification. In physics are the wave packets. S* |

... Why does anyone answer Skeezix Blutarsky? Hello Sal. Ah well, I guess that some of us like to try to be helpful. I'm hoping that Szczepan might one day read some modern books on radio theory and practice. Reminds me of when I had a relative who was unable to accept and understand modern day life and technology. Tried to help but relative was incurable. As someone else has said, we've had some good discussions about antenna theory and practice. Regards, Ian. |

.. . I've a recollection that you've posted your views onto this newsgroup a few weeks ago. I guess that asking you to disregard 19th century understanding and learn 20th and 21st century understanding is probably an unproductive approach. But I hope that you understand that 19th century physics and 21st century are the same. In the 20th the all was a top secret. S* I don't recall us having nuclear bombs in the 19th century, nor transistors nor integrated circuits. The underlying physics may not have changed but man's understanding of it certainly has. By analogy, the human body is still the same design as it was in the 15th / 16th /17th centuries (and earlier and later). If you need a doctor, will you go to one practising 21st century medicine or 15th century medicine? Would you prefer to drive a 21st century car or a 19th century car? Would you be worried about dropping off the flat earth? Perhaps you should study the "phlogiston" theory. How about the opposition that Galileo encountered when he tried to support the theory of Copernicus that Earth orbits around the Sun? If you'd been around in the time of Galileo and Copernicus I guess you'd be certain that the Sun orbits the Earth. After all, that's how Ptolemy said it was and that view lasted a thousand years or more. Regards, Ian. |

... Tesla and Marconi proved that antenna must be grounded and that it emmits/gains electrons. Ah no, Marconi showed that HIS antenna worked better when connected to ground. He definitely did not prove that all antenna must be grounded because many antennas in common use to-day (for example the quad and the yagi) weren't invented until long after Marconi's experiments. Several people have told you the same thing. Some of those people hold amateur radio licences and will have built and operated antenna which definitely are not connected to ground so they'll know what works. Any truth in the rumour that you live in the central USA and hold an Extra Class licence? Regards, Ian. |

"Jeff Liebermann" wrote in message ... snip I enjoy reading (and writing) science fiction. However, the real reason is that I haven't seen any decent antenna related discussions in this newsgroup for a long time. -- Jeff Liebermann Well, with Field Day coming up, I had planned to use last year's 20m dipole again, but I was on the phone with a guy last night and he dictated some really easy-sounding plans for a two-element quad. It's supposed to be good for 6 dB more gain than a dipole. Yes please, I'll take one free S-unit. We're in the southwest corner of the country, so aiming it is a no-brainer. Maybe I can post a diary of the build to amuse you nice folks by demonstrating my (lack of) skill using hand tools. By the way, we'll be using N3FJP's "Field Day Network Logger" this year, for the first time. Last year, one of our guys used N3FJP single-station logger for himself (400+ contacts) and he registered the network version for the club. I like it. We've had several good trial runs. Find it at http://www.n3fjp.com/. "Sal" (KD6VKW) Club President Club FD Chairman, Principal Elmer Donation Sales Manager (Jeez -- what am I _not_ doing?) |
