You mean you're not just supposed to fill a 12 oz. plastic cup and drink it down ?


/e ...with some Kool-Aid for flavor?

Yeah. I was given a bottle of it for donating to an event.

$400'ish a bottle, 8th or 9th ever bottled.. Will stay on my shelves for years.

as a concerned poster and friend
stop buying so much expensive shit

I'm done, that was my last hurrah

Didnt buy me anything?

Well I was gonna get ya one of these, but they were all sold out











/e Probably the best analog Amp ever made, even to this day. Got the pic off the beigh, where it's selling for $6,500 ^^

/ee We used them in the "service" for amplifying our navigation signals, that everyone used...ships, planes, NASA etc. If we were out of tolerance by a micro second...EVER (24/7/365) there was a District investigation and someone was goin down hard.

/eee They were true 1:1 Amps, whatever went in, came out bigger, ZERO distortion.


/eeee We had a whole string of gear to create the signal, from Cesium Oscillators (accurate to the fempto-second) to 44' long 6' thick, 8' tall final 200KW power amps...and the only single piece of gear in the whole string that degraded the signal, not one teeny bit, was this amp. Believe me, we had the gear to check that too. ^^



This is what the signal looked like...

Lies, it did cause distortion.

Obviously it's now superseded by GPS.


/e Users of our signal would have a receiver on w/e craft they were in, and get two numbers. One number from a Master and a Slave station and the other from the same Master but a different Slave station. Then they could take out their maps which were covered with parabolas corresponding to these two numbers...generally the parabolas ran N-S and E-W and were...well...numbered.

They would use one number to find their location on the N-S parabola, and the other to find their location on the E-W parabola. Wherever the parabolas intersected, was where they were located.

/ee Obviously if our signals weren't perfect, they would get erroneous numbers on their receivers, and would run into things, or fly into things.

/eee Since we transmitted this signal over the entire planet, we never knew when someone was actually using it or not....so we had to be dead on balls accurate 24/7/365.


/eeee I think at the peak, we had 24 sets of Master-Slave-Slave stations, scattered around the globe. I was on two of them, one in Spain and the other in Alaska.
