RE: Increasing Frequency




Larry,

The Corums, (Jim and Kenneth) are radio engineers and have mentioned just 
such a microwave Tesla resonator system at one of the Tesla Symposiums, 
Sorry, can't remember which one.  In their  little system, they took a 
capacitor and discharged it into a 30 gallon trash can with a port cut in 
the side and the natural resonant cavity rang up and arced across the cavity 
at hundreds of megahertz.  Gighertz frequencies could be realized with this 
arrangement!   Coils are just no good at all above 100mhz or so.  At the 
500mhz range a waveguide resonant cavity is the only game in town with a lot 
of losses and generational problems involved.  You really need to be a 
microwave engineer to play above these frequencies.  Wound coils are out and 
need not apply!  Your home microwave is a prime example of a gigahertz 
resonator system.
