I got four planks two feet long, 3/4 inches thick, and 3 or four inches wide. I joined them at the center with hot glue and a piece of 2X2, thus forming a cross or an "X" . I cut a notch in the extremity of each plank, to hold the wire I was going to wrap around the whole shebang. I got copper wire, I think it was 18 gauge, and proceeded winding turns onto my large form. Then I used packaging tape, the clear stuff, to insulate the wire and keep it relatively flat. I soldered a microphone shielded cable to the leads, and secured the junction to the frame. The next step was of course, to hook this antenna to an amplifier. I did that, nothing happened. I really boosted the amp by putting an Operational amplifier between the antenna and the main amplifier. Now I was getting some sounds, and a few noises which might have been whistlers, but I think they were flies.

Disregarding the metaphysical aspects of Schrodinger's cats, (Letters, April 28) I must protest at the use of (possibly live) animals for experiments such as these. I urge readers to boycott whatever product this research is leading to.

thanks to a weekend office move for my dad (he's moving his office into the home, since he's going into semi-retirement), i got a free office chair for my home office. it's a groovy old-school leather highback chair, with the casters and the armrests and the hey hey hey...

This is a textbook example of steroid induced rage syndrome.
(Mon Oct 23, 2000 - 10:12:02 am)
Myk Murphy:
yes, it can certainly rotate. it's a very heavy chair, however, so it was no fun getting it upstairs. the steroids were a great help, of course. i think piazza should have charged the mound to beat clemens silly.
