[Updated] Rectifying a Bunch of Videos
Added 2019-03-13 21:31:49 +0000 UTCThanks for peer review everyone! thanks to Sass Peter and Daniel who commented in my last post, I improved some details:
- Changed my body current measurement setup around 8:03 for more accuracy
- Removed my comment on un-grounded metal reflecting radio waves around 9:10 because I'm not 100% certain how un-grounded dish antenna effects the reflectivity and radiation pattern, and don't have setup to test it!
Have fun!

Hi Keith, His circuit is good. It is an oscillator circuit that makes AC from DC. I don't think it is 30k though, more like around 5 to 10k because he has to bring the wire too close to start an arc.

2019-03-17 07:01:19 +0000 UTCI came across a suspect video. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kHLG21mrvM." rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kHLG21mrvM.</a> Aside from the fact that 30kV for the output from that seems implausible at best. I thought transformers only worked on AC circuits. Is any part of this video possible? I apologize if my ignorance is showing. Electricity isn't my strong point.

2019-03-17 02:07:56 +0000 UTCThank you Mehdi!
2019-03-16 05:31:58 +0000 UTCGreat shout outs to those other channels. I had to IMMEDIATELY subscribe to all of the them (that I didn't already have on!)

2019-03-15 13:25:41 +0000 UTCThen there were the mobile/cellphone stickers you put under the battery to boost the signal, remember those? They were screen printed with 100% chinesium alloy in a pattern 'scientifically proven' to boost signal in dead spots. Worked like a charm, considering the objective was to part fools from their money!

2019-03-14 08:15:35 +0000 UTCThere was a commercial product on the market a few years ago which was foil coated card, you put this on your antenna similar to to coke can. It worked really well at boosting seller profits, killed your wi-fi signal though.

2019-03-14 08:11:40 +0000 UTCI'm not sure the router uses a simple monopole design. It is more probable they use a compact dipole design.

2019-03-14 08:03:18 +0000 UTC:D my bet is on roaches!

2019-03-14 01:58:08 +0000 UTCA thought on the coke can from a (very novice) ham radio operator - If it has any measurable effect, it will almost certainly be a weak shield serving to reduce noise (and signal) from one side of the antenna. It won't increase a signal, but it may (slightly!) help to reject unwanted emissions from a neighbor. Oooor it will just attract roaches because you didn't clean the sugar off well enough....

2019-03-14 00:35:07 +0000 UTCI know right?! I guess knowing and doing are two different things... noted

2019-03-14 00:33:45 +0000 UTCwhat?! I thought you knew it ALL about electromagnetics... such disappointment. ;-)

2019-03-14 00:14:46 +0000 UTCMehdi. Would be interesting if you could hack to bits a home made Satillite tv receiver. Specifically the LNB of the satellite dish.
2019-03-13 23:34:33 +0000 UTCSubtitles updated!
2019-03-13 23:20:10 +0000 UTCLove your experimental work, so hope you get to rectify some more stuff, like the metal radio dish, in the future.

2019-03-13 22:06:57 +0000 UTCits no working...
2019-03-13 21:47:07 +0000 UTCGreat as always buddy. Keep it up Mehdi
