Never heard of biasing a diode or being unable to understand doing so is pretty pathetic. Electronics does not get any simpler than this. Why don't you cross post this to more news groups so more people can have a laugh. Are you implying that those involved in this thread are retarded? or mentally deficient? I don't care that you have a good laugh. I know that many ppl in the groups to whom this thread is being posted don't have much of a clue about how AM radios work, let alone an FM set, or its MPX stereo decoder, or let alone a TV set, or VCR, or CD player. Hell, I damn well can't understand the schematic for the Space Shuttle, and I knows the laughter over this must be deafening, but heck, I don't care. To many folks the simplest of concepts are difficult to understand, and they restore their radios and amps using age old circuits which perform woefully most of the time. I am happy if I bring some simple alternative techniques for them to apply if they want, but most won't, because the idea of drilling more tube socket holes in an existing set is butchery. I care for more fidelity, and to get it, serious butchery is required, sometimes totally banishing the original old fashioned ideas altogether, removing all vestige of the old maker's design, and placing my own label on the chassis. The old maker may have been delighted that he got the thd down to 5%, audio bandwidth from 150 Hz to 2 kHz, with some hum, but I wasn't. Patrick Turner. -- Telamon Ventura, California |

Are you implying that those involved in this thread are retarded? or mentally deficient? Yes, are you having trouble comprehending that? I think you have a problem with basic human communication skills, and the ability to define personal attributes in an appropriate manner. I suspect nearly everyone here would agree. It does not worry me in the least about whatever conclusions you have come to over the issues I have just raised, or how you propose to remedy your shortcomings. But one thing seems certain, and its that you have not contributed much of worth which is relevant, helpful, interesting, informative or cheerful in the recent discussions in this thread.

I un-retarded this technical thread as a favor to rrs's Twains of Today, the
Modern Menckens and our Real Time Roykos. Others are invited to follow along. However, I may miss much of it. To paraphrase General Stonewall Jackson, I've killfiled 'em. Killfiled 'em all. Frank Dresser |
