Re: [MEG_builders] Re: help needed for MEG tuning

You point out one the more interesting aspects to all of this... the ability
to measure what's really going on... I sell robotic lawn mowers that use a
energized wire to creat a magnetic field for the electronics of the mower to
respond to... when I went out to get a magnetometer to measure the fields
the wires are producing I found such equipment difficult to come by... the
probes imprecise... the strength of the background field of the earth a
mitigating factor

The instruments are better now, but measuring a magnetic field, it's
orientation, it's strength and so forth is still pretty imprecise... a true
measure of the field in the core would require an internal probe... right
now we (you, I and all the others trying to reproduce this effect) are
actually guessing... once we enter the realm of guessing we are into the
"black arts"... strangely I feel a kinship with Edison when I consider the
challenges here... Bearden's team has an irreplaced pool of empirical
knowledge we collectively must accumulate...
I believe we are on the road...

... As the core goes into saturation, the field will be less contained in it, so if good things happen when saturation occurs, it refutes the idea that high...

In looking at your output waveforms, it appears that your MEG is still a "Biased transformer". Note the skewed output waveform. Try changing the input...
