Re: [TCML] Re: Re: Dummy load for optimum cap size Experimentation ---High Sensitivity/
It's actually a lot easier to measure heat or light than RF, since RF would
be in short chaotic bursts, while heat and light are inherently averaged out
into a smooth value by the thermal time constant of the filament.
Additionally, this experiment doesn't use RF because I don't want to have to
adjust tuning each time I change the cap value. Changing the tuning would
require having multiple things (cap, primary L, and secondary L/C) change,
and I'm trying to determine the best cap value without changing multiple
things.
