    I hope to get a listen soon in my system and will report any findings. I'll do it blind though.

    Oli in some systems it is more than obvious from just one lead, others take a couple to come up to speed

    Obsolutely no cat litter, iron filings, minerals, capacitors or small men with Napoleon syndrome hiding away inside mind you not sure even the big version could house Marco's ego!

    Best results are achieved with an even handed system imho

    How to get Annie to squeal humm maybe a sheeps heart and a tin of vim 😇 (really showing my age now)

    Mind you even your ego pales into insignificance compare to Paul Miller who's ego is the size of Jupiter and I have never met a person who manages to exceed his own stands of self pre occupation! Even M Collom's ego doesn't match up to that particular gargantuan!

    Well I'll find out!

    If it works, I'll say so.

    The system has today been independently verified as 'Superb" so I'm sure if there is something to hear, it'll happen.

    Very well written article, explaining the theory behind why these ground boxes are needed.

    I was put off the author by the inclusion of 'pace rhythm and timing' as that expression is one of my bete noire's, but that is a different discussion.

    Apart from saying the RF energy is converted to heat it doesn't really say how they work though.
