Another thought - perhaps the folks at the FCC got tired of hearing the
phone ring and being badmouthed everywhere and pulled folks from other areas
to man the terminals for a few days to get rid of the backlog. Or maybe
they brought their kids in? Anyway, it appears that the backlog is breaking
loose...

Yeah, genius though he may have been, he was also as crazy as a shit house
rat. One of the better books I have on him is a collection of his writings.
Once you've read what he had to say in his own words, you can see why most
people thougt him to be a crackpot.
Remember, he also came up with the idea of free energy to the masses with
his large resonant transformer project. Just imagine that if he had managed
to finish it, there would not be radio communications as we know it. Period!
As far as the rift between Tesla and Edison, that was partly due to Edison's
"Not-Invented-Here" attitude and partly due to Tesla's unusualy firm belief
of his own infalibility. (Hummm, sort of like the discussions on r.r.a.p)
Tesla, genius or madman? Both!
73 es GM from Jeff
For what it's worth, even as I type (well, sorta...it's only 0730 local) the annual
International Tesla Conference is going on right here in Colorado Springs. Wayne
even mentioned it in his August editorial.
They also had a short bit about it on the local news last night...judging from the
appearance of some of the participants (cf. my postings in .policy a few months
back about the appearance of hams at Dayton), it looks like some of them are
trying to follow in Nikola's footsteps :-).
73, Jeff

Why, is something funny?
I have one. I liked having the chance to hold it in my hand and play with
it before I put down some money. I also figured out how to add a hold
function ( so easy I'm surprised RS didn't do it ). Solid construction,
metal case, does what I need it to.
I need to get in and play with some other 'test points' and see what they do.
I paid $90 plus tax using a coupon.
