Aren't we dealing with two different animals here? Radio towers deal
with info. transmission only, not power. Has anyone actually tried to
replicate Tesla's work in Colorado? I know we have eeficiencies now that
we didn't have then, etc.,etc..But has anyone actually replicated his
science? I still hold to the idea that there's much more to this
resonance thing than we are exploring at the moment - I'm sure that was
the "push" he needed to get over the "lossiness". Yes we have our
present day formulas, but formulas evolve as our understanding
increases.
I read in Cheney's book (I know, I know -lot's of mysticism here)about a
man who was working in Utah to replicate Tesla's work, but ran out of
funding to go further - anyone know his results?
