Hi Folks,   I did record the 7.7M This AM.   It is visible but not =
impressive, which lead me to a question.  Why was it inferior?   The =
idea of a ball hanging from a magnet is good, the period is about 1.5 =
seconds? this should be okay.  The coil and magnets are okay.   The only =
defect I could see is that the pendulum was free to move in a circle, =
and not forced to move across the wraps.   I would welcome your =
opinions, we learn a lot from failures.   So if I can pin point why this =
was an inferior set up and recording if would be helpful in new designs.
When I finish the recordings I will post it on PSN as TCIDPM   Ted =
Channel Idaho/Paper Mate.
