"Mike Rivers" Phil Allison ** But the ignorant prick still snips out people's names !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Would you (or someone who understands what this blithering excuse for a newsgroup stalker is talking about) please explain what you're mising here? ** The only "blithering excuse for a newsgroup stalker" round here is called Mike Rivers. Give me an example. You're " aren't you? ** That is an email address - see the colored letters ??? Do you expect me to go out of my way to type your name? ** My name, just like yours and all others, appears automatically before the address in black letters. Would you go away happy (going back several days) with the substitution of "electromagnetic" for "RF" in the context of my original message? ** The CMRR of a balanced input does not act to defeat "RF interference" - but it does act against EM interference which exists in the audio band. Good. Then we concur on terms. ** We concur on nothing you piece of crap. Go back to your home under the bridge. ** Go back to your dunny crawling. ............... Phil |

Steal your girlfriend in seventh grade?
Not possible, because (A) Phil obviously has not yet arrived at seventh grade, and (B) no girl would ever show any interest in such an immature inarticulate bedwetting ****-stain as this Phil cretin. Scott Fraser |

Dunno about his ISP, but he is posting through an open mail server in Germany which is more or less famous for being used by people whose own ISPs no longer allow them to use a mail server. Some sites just dump their traffic although clearly nobody upstream of me does. He has continued to demostrate that he has distorted and incomplete knowledge of the subject, but he does enjoy spouting brief statements that appear to be facts, more specifically facts related to the discussion. Do not be misled by him, nor let him discourage you from asking for clarification from others who have contributed to the discussion. Most of what he has said has been correct, but irrelevant to the subject of discussion. This is worse than posting clearly incorrect stuff because it basically is an attempt to hijack and transform a discussion. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |

Get a length of insulated wire, connect the ends to pins 2 and 3 of an XLR, plug it into a mic pre and try the effect of having an open loop, closed loop and then twisted tightly all along its length when held close proximity to an AC power transformer. Exactly right. And if you vary the spacing between the conductors you'll discover an anomaly in your model. Absolutely and it applies elsewhere too, like pcb design.

Over the course of a few days, the naptha evaporates, leaving a gummy residue. It's very good for displacing water in high voltage systems. It's really, really bad news on moving parts. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |

"Scott Dorsey" I really would appreciate it if you would quote properly. You really should use the e-mail address like the RFC suggests. WD-40 is a silicone oil in a light naptha vehicle. ** It **actually** says on the can: " CFC free. No silicone. Propellant CO2 ". According to the MSDS that I have, it's full of cyclomethicone, which I think is polydimethylsiloxane in disguise. May be different in Australia, but if so, it will be less effective for its original purpose. WD-40 is actually famous as being one of the first industrial uses of cyclic silicones, and it was one of the great developments to come out of wartime industrial research. The oil component is very similar to general purpose light oil. I can believe it, and like a lot of cheap light oils, it crosslinks and turns into varnish at high temperatures and in contact with air. The silicone stuff doesn't prevent any of that and it might make it worse. Over the course of a few days, the naptha evaporates, leaving a gummy residue. ** The residue is light oil - ie a very common lubricant. Sadly it's not very stable as a lubricant. If you want a penetrating oil that leaves behind an effective lubricant, you might consider SuperLube from Loctite, which is really amazing stuff. I would not use any of these on a pot, because of the possibility of damaging conductive plastic elements with the solvent, though. Even aside from the long-term stability issues of WD-40. Most of the older "pot cleaning" solutions from the pre-plastic-element days, like Quietrole, were thicker stable oils, mostly paraffin types, with methyl salicylate and a dye added. The idea is that they acted as solvents to remove the gunk and also left a protective film behind as well as loosening up the old grease in the bearing. I'm not sure what these will do to modern conductive plastic types but I wouldn't risk it. And they again didn't have the best longterm stability, even on Type Js. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra.
