About
I was raised on a grade-A dairy, milked cows until I was 18 then joined the Navy. My interests in the automation of milk production led me into the automatics involved in the control of heavy guns aboard destroyers where I studied electronics and hydraulics. I earned a full-ride Navy scholarship and Midshipman appointment to attend Oregon State University to study mechanical engineering to fly for the Navy in preparation for the Vietnam War. After 3 years, I switched to secondary education where I taught physics and chemistry for 35 years before retiring with anMS in Science Education + 75 graduate hours.
As a teacher, in about 2009, I was approached by a parent with an idea to enhance solar panel wattage production, but he was illiterate, strongly believed in perpetual motion and was incapable of presenting his idea to academia. He had spent 29 years experimenting with Extremely Low Frequency, ELF radiation and was claiming enhancement rates above 30%! He sold me his interest in the procedure.
I took eight 1.5-watt panels to the Electrical Engineering lab of Brigham Young University and had the graduate lab assistant proctor and measure their outputs before I irradiated them in preparation for the post tests. The first 7 trials failed, but the 8th panel was enhanced by 17%.
The department chairman required a personal demonstration of such a high claim, in order to get his endorsement and interest in further study. I could not provide that replication.
Later I contacted the National Renewable Energy Lab, NREL, where they agreed to analyze my data ahead of all other tests on their bench. Now, after a 14% enhancement experience, I want to practice the procedure to get fresh, solid data for the NREL, then return to the university to hire professional research.
The procedure is simple, but I want to avoid industrial espionage by using my family in the lab to help me conduct the testing.
