Hello PSN,

I would appreciate any comments regarding my AS-1 type sensor. It's close to
the original design. I did not like the knife edge aluminum boom attached to
a score mark in the aluminum mast, so I modified the boom to mast
attachment. I am using two razor blades. One on the boom and one on the
mast. Hardened steel on steel. Friction is much less. Free running
oscillations have a much longer duration. Does anyone have a better
suggestion? I would like to hear from you.

See my pic's here:  http://picasaweb.google.com/cfi2fly/MyPictures#

Also, Chris, if you read this, if I reversed the coil and magnet, would the
effort be worth the results?

Thank you all,

Richard
