Summary
Mark Koernke discussed the first 2016 presidential debate, analyzing Hillary Clinton's apparent use of hand signals to the moderator, an electronic device worn under her clothing, and unequal debate conditions favoring her candidacy. He covered preparedness topics including fall gardening (garlic planting in Zone 6), routine household supplies (soap, matches, clothing, shoes), and advanced electronics projects (the Joule Thief and Super Joule Thief circuits for extracting energy from depleted batteries). The show concluded with a monthly drawing awarding seven surprise boxes and three fixed items (thermal sweater, Liberty Bible, Back to Basics book) to listeners, and promotional announcements for airsoft equipment and tactical gear.

and and and the sun's only 3,000 miles away, that's fine but the solar flare, I did confirm that myself, I've got a telescope with a solar filter, I can see the huge-ass sunspot on the part of the sun focusing on us so use something that you've heard over the past hour to prepare for this thing as a solution folks. Well, it's a... And the solar flare like that Craig has been talking about for a long time If it's that bad, we'll see. It's not like it would be the first time that something like this has happened in Earth's history. In fact, we can go back when we were using telegraph when we got hit by a rasp one. Yeah, that was the current... Well, it might be the year we have no winter. That'd be good, huh? The year we have no winter? And it depends on where you are. Maybe the year we have no winter, yeah. They had one year in history. We had no summer. Maybe Ohio had no winter this year. Okay, so Mike, just to clarify, you're still making archives, we just can't get to them right now? Oh yeah, what happened to them? Yes sir, they will be back up as soon as Host Monster figures out what the problem is. Okay, let me take the opportunity to bug you.

For future generations, this legacy we gave. Brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost. You're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free. Brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can be taught according to the... You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper, so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken a say number, you've traded in your name, you've given government control to those who do you harm, so they could burn down churches and seize family farms and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail, harass your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children may be your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land. Preserve our great Republic and each God-given right to torture freedom bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist from whence he came. His words were true, not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now, as tyrants trampled, each God-given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer? He called out from the grave. Dill the Land of the Free. The Evening Intelligence Report. I'm our kirky. And Butter Knife? Loser to Victory for all lines in occupied territories. West.4mg.com Indiana Freedom Talk Radio. Name an FM Micro station. C. B-B, Bay Stations and Ultra Net, all technologies east of Alaska. Afternoon to the Aleutians and to our friends out there, the great state of Jefferson. And it's been a beautiful, wet and soggy day. We had the rain back off, but still gray. And then it hit us again, that not real downpour, but a steady soaking rain. However, it's not that cold, which is interesting, because, well, what's the day today? What's it look like in your neck of the woods? And what's jumping off the wall, please? It is 30 September 2016. It is Friday evening. It is the last hour of the day and the week for the intelligence report. And that makes this quartermaster's corner. And it is starting to feel a little bit more like fall. We're getting somewhat cooler. We're getting a little bit of damp. Haven't gotten hit with the rain recently. Very often, the little ghosties and goblins get soaked. But it hasn't, you know, it'll be a month or so before we find out whether that's the case. However, October is usually fairly wet around here and I'm expecting to see more and more of that stuff. I will remind people that I am in Zone 6, that's the middle of the country in the St. Louis area. And right now is the time, if you have not planted your garlic and stuff, now is the time to do it. Official frost dates for my area, Zone 6, is basically Halloween to April Fool's and you should be planting your garlic and stuff like that four to six weeks before the first expected frost so that means right now if you are more southern than me you've got a little bit of time if you're more northern than me and you haven't done it get a move on because you know you're into the window of vulnerability But we do like our garlics and things like that. That really should be planted in the fall. If you wait till spring, those bulbs may not have stored very well. They, for some reason, seem to store better in the dirt than they do outside of the dirt. Maybe they were designed to live in the dirt. What an interesting thought. It's a plant thing. Yeah, it's a plant thing, those little dirt creatures. Oh, before we go too far, Ed, if you're going to be doing the drawing thing and taking a piece off the backside of the program, I need to know how much so that we can do some planning. Now, how many minutes do you plan to take? Ed, got any response for me here? We'll pop in here in a minute. Again, we are having the drawing at the end of the program. Usually it will be the last 10 to 15 minutes we can figure to be safe. We have a total of 10 items in the drawing, so it shouldn't take too long. We have seven surprise boxes and three fixed items that Ed has down there that were sent as donations to the station. for And I have to say I was kind of disappointed in the Donald's performance. I think that his failures result from issues of ego. He had the idea that he could behave in a reasonably chivalrous and polite fashion and that it would be reciprocated. Ha, ha, ha. No, that did not happen. La Vampira was on the attack the entire time with prepared zingers and all this sort of stuff. Ann demonstrated that she has 40 years of experience in slinging political BS and he does not. So, you know, when she comes out with some piece of total baloney and he says no or wrong, he might be telling the truth when he says that's wrong but it's not a useful debate tactic it does not fly in a debate he's accustomed to uh... his business opponents dealing with them are you know they have power he has power they negotiate uh... but they're all more like their k g but they're you know uh... more or less honest they're looking to strike a deal or dealing with subordinates who have to listen to them and that is not the case during a debate is dealing with a weasely slimeball who can tell you know ninety nine percent why one percent truth and it sounds good because it's all been handcrafted and prepared in advance even with all of those advantages she gets the high behind the you're not going to be too uh... rude to the little lady you cannot possibly be as mean to me as i can be to you because you know i'm i'm a feminist but i'm going to hide behind the uh... the female privilege thing you know there there's a double standard going on there and she uses that for all it's worth even despite all of that and all of her experience and her entire organization and all of her operatives doing focus groups and figuring out how to phrase things and all of this stuff she still had to cheat and if you want to see the signs of cheating well you can just watch the debate and be aware that the uh... It was basically a two on one. The moderator was clearly taking sides and doing things like declaring so-called facts, which were not truthful facts, but took it upon himself to declare himself the fact checker and blah, blah, blah. But if you go on YouTube, you can find a whole bunch of videos where people went through and analyzed clips. And there's two things that were going on. One is that she was clearly giving hand signals to the moderator to tell them what to do. A bunch of poker pros and things like that have reviewed the video and said, oh yeah, yeah, that's, you know, they'd have bounced on that instantly in a casino. That's by poker player standards, that's amateurish stuff. But, you know, more than the audience is expecting to see. When she rubs one side of her nose, she's telling him to, you know, keep hammering Trump on a particular topic, keep going. and when she rubs the other side of her nose she's telling him, you know, toss it over to me without any change of topic because I have a prepared zinger to toss in here. And he followed instructions. You know, the people counted statistics and they said, well, he interrupted her seven times and he interrupted Trump 41 times. Okay, I'll take their word for it on the count. I'm not going to sit there and check that one. But, so not only did they do this sort of catcher and pitcher collusion hand signal type thing, which is, you know, gross cheating of the worst sort. But there's an even worse one involved. Right at the end, when they break up and the thing's over and everybody's wandering around and shaking hands and so on, Hillary goes down to shake hands with some of her adoring fans. And she makes a mistake. She bends forward to shake hands with somebody that's down below the level of the stage. And bending forward, she stretches the material of her pantsuit against her back. And you can clearly see in the video the outline of some sort of electronic box that she's got at the base of her back. and a wire running up the back of her back up under her hair. And this time around the hair is all styled so that you do not see the ears, so you can't see an earbud. So, you know, she's definitely wired up for sound and, you know, anybody could detect that with the slightest pat down and so on and they didn't do it. So even with all of her advantages, all of the, you know, 40 years of experience of shoveling BS, all of the campaign organization and preparation and prepared zingers and accusations and stuff like that that they had stacked up with a friendly moderator who's prepped and instructed to hammer on her opponent and give her softballs with all of that stuff. They still had to cheat with the hand signals telling them what to do and with an electronic device feeding or information or prompts or cues or whatnot. So, you know, sadly the first of the three is always going to be the most widely watched. There were something like 80 million live viewers and God knows how many after the fact that some of these YouTube echoes have, you know, multiple millions of views. At the same time, YouTube is going around yanking down these videos as fast as they can find them, showing the cheating, and people just keep reposting them. So you will see these things up there, and they will have artificially low hit counts, because as soon as they get a few thousand hits or something, YouTube bounces on them and takes them down, and then the same person puts them back up again, and other people put them back up again. So you can see them, you will see artificially low hit counts on the things, but she has, with all of the advantages she had, she still had to cheat. This tells you something about the psychology of the monsters that we're dealing with here. He has some ego problems, obviously did not prepare as thoroughly as he should have. Of course, he's not a professional politician and he does not have that whole organization accumulated over decades. of manipulators and schemers and focus group operators and so on. He probably has some hostile moles that have been slipped in there telling him to be all wishy-washy and compromising and stuff, which is a terrible blunder. His support comes from people that don't want the same old stuff. They want some fresh air in DC. But even with all of those advantages on her side, and some disadvantages on his where he thinks that he knows what he's doing and he doesn't, you know, as far as the debate tactics and stuff are concerned, they still had to cheat. And it's visible right there on YouTube and you can see it. You know, and with all of that, I still give them a 45-55, you know, score or so on the debate. He, you know, held up his own to a degree. It could have been worse. But I would say that she won 55% to 45% just because she's better at the tactics and all of that kind of stuff plus all of the cheating Did you see any of those videos are you aware of all those chilis? Well one of the other things too is like I've said it was two to one the the announcer was an individual was chosen purely to be an operator for the Clintonistas I still cannot You can't tell me that for all the colleges and universities where we have challenging debate mechanisms, and I'm not talking about where we have the snowflakes who have to hide in the closet and have their safe space. I know most of the colleges are ruined with regard to what little pitiful debate they have left. But you can't tell me there isn't somebody out there, a newscaster or a commentator of any kind like this or any twit from that particular arena should be excluded completely. And most important is having no association in any way, shape or form with any of the parties, which isn't that hard because many of the people involved in debating societies are in neutral factions. You know, they're there for the sake of argument, literally. I mean, it's not a pun. Yeah, they're developing the practice at the technique. The way the academic debates work is that you go out there and they flip a coin and you find out which side you're going to be of the issue. And you have to prepare both sides. So, you know, it's not a matter of what you believe, it's what you can scheme up. So, you know, they're preparing people for the techniques of debating and rhetoric and so on like that. And surely they can come up with somebody who can be Mr. Spock and, you know, totally even-handed and so on, and they chose not to. Right. And so that means this was a lot of, again, it's engineered toward shoving her down our throats one way or another. That's very obvious there. The other part, you're very correct. Everybody caught this. Nancy said this too. She goes, well the problem is he's a man. He doesn't have a problem. I don't, you know, like in a competitive boardroom or a competitive environment. Smacking down anybody, male or female, is not a problem, but there is still an etiquette issue with regard to, well, we don't want to be abusive to the woman. If there was a guy up there, I'd beat the snot out of him, but since he's a female, we'll do this. And I believe that that's true. Everybody got the feeling of that, that he could have come out biting a lot harder. And that's part of the whole problem again with the way the thing has been engineered. He thought he was playing by Queensbury rules and here she was taking shots at the grind. He was in cage wrestling, not in boxing. That's the problem. You should remember that. He's in cage wrestling. You know, cage fighting where there's no rules. everything is bite and kick and that's the part that's missing from this which everybody was... let's be honest and somebody hit it right on the nail there's a guy that did a little sound bite he goes let's all be honest if you watch the debates you are watching it hoping that Hillary would fall over dead in front of the camera come on be honest that's exactly what I was hoping for And it's true, but he hit right in the nail. I mean, the guy's like, absolutely correct. He goes, everybody you talked to said, you know, I really figured she wouldn't make it through this. And it's like I said, well, she did, but she has no business being near the presidency. If you have to stop doing everything else so you can survive a 15 minute or an hour debate, you have no business being near the job. Yeah, she had to basically vanish for about a week and a half to prepare for this thing. And I have to say they did a great job of painting her up with the makeup. It made her look like a normal person, instead of the sort of wretched hag that she is normally. pumped her up on whatever drug so she didn't have any coughing fits and so on. There were a few videos that showed that she seemed to have an uncontrollable tremor in one hand, but she could conceal that behind the podium. And they also gave her a podium with lift platform in it so that she wouldn't look so short. And they never ever ever showed her feet so that you'd see that she was six inches off the ground. I'll give them that much. However, it's enough with the hand signals and the electronic devices. It's just a flat out cheat. That lady was high as a kite. Did you see how she blinked? It took a second, every single blink. Yeah. Now, I'll remind everybody, there's two things about that for anybody who knows what's going on with lighting. Number one, they're roasting him. They're cooking him. If you pay attention, if you look at the two, Again, where they control that is the color board, but it's still because of the level of cooking that they were doing to wash him out and to urinate him. There are two different lighting systems. They can do that through discretion, but they did that here. You've got to accept that they're going to be able to get away with a certain amount of this garbage, and that's one of them. With her, the reason she's blinking long is even where they've probably knocked back the lighting to LED or they've knocked it back to non-conventional, it's not a toaster. You can literally buy heat lamp lights. I mean that are spotlights for the purpose of. Well, right now, you can back that a loss to LED and eliminate it, but that's not what they want to do. Well, that's why traditional stage makeup is all grease-based makeup, okay? Yeah. It's just kind of... It's just by the heat. It's just kind of felt and run off when the actor is sweating like a pig, because... Yep. ...the traditional lights, you know, even though they're focused from, you know, 50 feet away, they are focused, and you get enough of them, it's going to roast the target. So like you like to call her saying the reason the long blink is because even with all the controls she because of the drugs whatever they should they were saving the good stuff for this activity. Otherwise, she ain't coming out of that. In other words, it's not like she's coming out of the corner fighting. Because as soon as she's done with this, she was, as soon as they could, they're scuttling her right back out and plop, she's over on her back again, or she's over in the corner in the hospital bed in the basement, you know what I mean? In other words, out of sight, out of mind. And they bring the droid out. They bring out the replacement, whatever they've got, for a few other, from a distance, smiling wave like the queen. And you sure did not see any video of her piling into the SUV afterwards, did you? No, they're going to make it. That's another thing that will be guaranteed that no matter what, they will tighten that up. And when you see that loosen up again, That will be the cue that they're going to get rid of her. When, because this is something that happened with Ronald Reagan. When Ronald Reagan was shot, I've pointed this out many times, guys, policy with the Secret Service is to bring the transportation up to minimal distance from the entrance, you know, of a facility to the vehicle itself. And literally they parked the vehicle in a wrong location that traditionally, in fact where he walked, if I walked down two, is where the limousine normally would be waiting for the president. He walked completely past the secure zone and they walked him right into the shooting gallery. Literally. If you look at the site where he was shot, nobody talks about that hardly at all anymore, look at the location, understand that the presidents of the United States, not just Reagan, but others have spoken at that location. And any other time that they were moved, every other time they were moved policy is there's a drive up and a wrap around. That the car would be right there, that it would be ready to pick him up, he moves right into security, he's done. And instead they walk him right down to the shooting line. Where the Patsy shooter was standing his face? Exactly, yeah. Where he should have been climbing into the vehicle. They instead had him walk down the street and across the street. There's also some talk that there was a shooter from the balcony above. I don't know whether that's true or not. It probably is. They have a Patsy on the ground trying and then somebody on top taking a more careful shot. An analysis of the bullet path would reveal that. To pull it back to modern times, for her to have all of these advantages and him having all of these, some of the honest disadvantages, his own ego got in the way in some things. Yet, she still has to cheat. It tells you something about the psychology of the vampires. For all of their advantages, for all of the scheming, for all of the infrastructure they've got built up to support them, they still have no confidence that they can handle things, even 10% on their own. Exactly. One of the other things interesting about this is in the last air tube, it's the pregnant pause routine where people have been able to pick it apart because social media, they're trying desperately to deflect. And like I said, eat up any information that is contrary to trying to rah-rah the event itself. Now we've still got others that are coming up, but as far as I'm concerned, like I said, the pattern has been set. And the only reason people tuned in as much as they did the first time is because of all of the public conversation about her flopping over and dying on the stage. I don't think many are looking for that. There's another factor that we may or may not have mentioned on this channel. Michael Savage was saying the same thing. It looks like she's got Parkinson's and he's reporting these physicians' opinions to that effect. They punched him off the air. Right smack dab in the middle of a broadcast they cut over to an archive and then they fired him. So there's a guy that's generating a lot of listeners on regular broadcast radio and so on. And Michael Savage is off the air. They yanked him off the air because he was talking about her health. They're getting desperate to knock out fairly large scale journalists in this area and they're punching out Twitter accounts and Facebook accounts left and right and taking down YouTubes and all of this kind of stuff. So the whole machine is kicking in trying to suppress the subversive information that's leaking out. And they're still having a hard time. They're playing whack-a-mole and the moles are winning. Another thing here real quick guys, I want to do this as Quartermaster Freddy before we go any farther. We're eating up the vests and chest pouches that I mentioned earlier in the last couple of days. There are only two items left. There's the OD Green Assault Vest and the black chest pouches at Airsoft GI. The equipment is made by TAC, TAC, TAC-9. If you go to airsoftgi.com, airsoftgi.com, then we get there, Punching is a Starch, TAC, TAC, space, numeral 9, space, Blams. And it will take you right to, it will show you six items. Four of them are out. You know, this is a gray marker that says out of stock. the two that are left, if they're even left there right now because we've been eating them up. Well, there'll be the black chess pouch or the OD green assault vest. The assault vest comes with a belt. So it's definitely a worthwhile package. The one is $6.99 for the chess pouch, $12.99 for the assault vest. And that's airsoftgi.com. Pretty well we've consumed them. I picked up 20 of the chess pouches and the assault vests, ten of each and then one odd man out because I need one for somebody else. But everybody else is doing the same thing by what it was told. So in some cases everybody bought a big pile of them just for backups. For people who don't have anything it's something to put on your carcass to get you in motion. And a lot of people claiming, I don't have anybody! Well here, give me seven dollars plus the shipping and you got something. So it will work out pretty well. Anyway, that's just up right now, airsoftgi.com. It's Quartermaster Friday. Want to get that in there, BK? Go ahead, jump in. I want to mention to some people generally that while we talk about ammunition and we talk about medical and we talk about this, that and the other thing, there's a lot of routine stuff in everyday life. One of the big things is shoes and clothing and utility gear, not necessarily field gear, etc. I want to remind people that The supply channel is still up and running for the time being. I would encourage everybody go through your closet and go through the shelves up there and do a little inventory and think about it. Suppose all the stores shut down or the money went to pieces to the point that you couldn't afford them. Do you have enough underwear? Do you have enough sheets? Do you have enough ordinary stuff? Just leather belts, socks, not necessarily field gear. I don't want you wearing your field boots out in the garden unless you're breaking them in. because that's a special purpose thing that's got specific use and tennis shoes won't do in that circumstance. So, you know, take a look through all your ordinary routine stuff. I just put in an order myself, you know, just simple stuff like, okay, this pair of shoes that I normally wear all the time starting to crack up from the, you know, leather just kind of wearing out over time. Okay, put in an order for that exact same size and style because I like that one and it's tested and it works well for my feet. There are routine things that you can pick up. Do you have enough bar soap on hand? I don't know what that whistling is. Somebody has an open mic. We've got somebody using the backup signal needs to shut down right now. Yeah, somebody's got an open mic. That's not a problem. You're using your toys. Just don't do them on an open mic, please. So, you know, take a look through all this routine stuff. How about dishwashing soap? You know, your lemon joy or equivalent, that kind of stuff. It's fairly cheap. If you get it from, you know, the no-name brand from all these, you don't have to have Dawn liquid, what have you. All of that stuff works fine. If you go to hand washing and sanitation and so on, you may heat up water with wood fire or solar or anything. You're going to be cleaning utensils and whatnot, but you need the soap. You do not want to go to making your own lye soap any sooner than you absolutely have to. I don't see any reason to have to do that in less than a several year scenario. Soap does not spoil oil and storage. It's got no shelf life restrictions to speak of. Make sure that you have enough. Do you have at least a case of bar soap on hand? Just sluicing off all of the grunge. is half of what you need to do to keep people healthy. You have a dozen bottles of liquid dish soap. If you don't, go ahead and stock those up. If your spouse is not into the whole prepping thing, just buy a couple of extras on every routine shopping trip and squirrel them away someplace. All of these ordinary things, these aspects of daily life will become critical but they are available now. We keep hammering this thing. When stuff is available, get it. Don't wait until there's a shortage and then go chasing the shortage. Like we did with the ammunition, there's an ammunition shortage and then everybody's always talking about, well, I found a little here, I found this there, and so on. Right now, there's ammunition on the shelves. Pick it up now before the election. If Hillary gets in, you know it's going to be vacuumed off the shelves. If If Trump gets in, you know they're going to crash the economy immediately and bad things will happen and people will probably vacuum it off the shelves figuring they'll get something for their FRNs before they are useless. Either way, I do not expect the supply system to continue to function as well as it is now after the election or a significant time after the election. Components are available. Go ahead and put in an order. You won't like the prices, but a year or three from now you'll think, I don't even remember exactly what I paid, but I'm sure I'm glad that I've got it. So, go ahead and hit all of these ordinary routine things. So, do you have anything to add at the moment? Matches, don't forget matches and fire starting technology, lighters, throwaway lighters, anything you can. Try to find the American brands. There are still one or two places that carry this stuff. A lot of it's going to be China Sport. The green matches are, if you have to go with those, you go with them. But remember, we've already done some testing and we've already seen those things falling apart. If they're in your pocket and they get damp, typical for the China Sport Cardboard or Cardstock, it just doesn't survive. So that's a head-up. The strike anywhere matches are pretty much gone unless you go for the ridiculously expensive specialty ones from the camping stores. There are a few strike-anywhere's out there. They are a pale limitation of what they were like when I was a kid. I wouldn't even bother. You get the strike-on box wooden ones. When you're getting the big boxes, there's an awful lot of striking area. You can slice that up with scissors. and distribute it in different packages. That's a perfect thing to drop in the glass jars. The gallon glass jars is a perfect sealing container for things like that. If you're getting the little size, you can just shovel those things in like Halloween candy and stack them up. You'll see Pambly is made in India and Blue Diamond, I think, is made in China now. I don't know if there's any normal varieties that are even made in the U.S. But those still work to a degree, but you definitely want to keep them dry. So the glass gallon jars is a wonderful technology, otherwise multiple layers of plastic packaging, ammo cans, desiccant packs are good. But even without a desiccant pack, an ammo can is useful, so it's not soaking up endless humidity. You know, all of these things, you know, all this routine stuff. I'm a big fan of the glass lens. You need a bright sunny day to use it, but it never runs out of juice. We used to set leaves on fire when we were children with a magnifying glass. Well, you know, you can get one of those and carry it around in your pocket and it's useful for glass lens as well in the meantime. So, you know, all of this normal stuff. I have one last nerdy topic I'd like to slip in and then I think Ed's going to grab the microphone. Some while back at intervals, we used to mention something called the Jewel Thief. Alright, this is a very simple, very elegant circuit that you can build with only three components and what it does is it allows you to operate an LED from batteries that have sunk below the 1.5 volt threshold. Alkaline and carbon zinc batteries kind of fall off the cliff after a while when they get run down and for most purposes when they get down to about 1.25, 1.2 volts, something like that, you consider that they're gone. Well, there's a little bit of energy left in them, and with this circuit called the Joule thief, J-O-U-L-E thief, and you can find it all over the web. What this circuit does is it self-oscillates, it's called a relaxation oscillator. And it sucks the last little bits of juice out of a nearly expended battery sufficient to generate high voltages to operate in LED. It's a useful thing, it lets you get more life out of those old batteries. It can also let you get some use out of these super capacitors because they run down to eventually zero and let you use that super capacitor or ultra capacitor if you like. for a much wider portion of its voltage range. However... There is an improvement on the jewel thief available. There's a fellow named Watson who has a webpage up, a blog really, at rustybolt.info. That is rusty, R-U-S-T-Y, bolt, B-O-L-T, dot, info. And that's a WordPress blog and he just goes on and on and on. It can be hard to find things in there. but he does some interesting experimentation. This guy is an experimentalist, not a theorist. So he fiddles around, he's been making these jewel thieves for years and playing with the different transistors and some circuit arrangements and so on. And he has come up with an improvement on the jewel thief. that fixes one of its faults. Now the thing about the jewel thief that is neat is that it sucks out all of this last remaining energy from a battery. The downside is that it's only about 50% efficient. That is that, you know, it does get that energy out, but it doesn't use it super efficiently. Well, that's that's still fine if you're getting something for nothing even if you're wasting half of it He has come up with a variation on the jewel thief circuit that is closer to 80 to 90 percent efficient The downside is it does not suck the battery quite as low. It'll stop operating at a slightly higher voltage however It is an improvement on the thing of considerable efficiency and it uses only two additional components. It uses a low-value capacitor, something in the 600 to 700 nano farad range, I'm sorry, pico farad range, so it's very, very small capacitors, and a diode, preferably a Schottky diode. Well, a capacitor like that, you know, a little ceramic disc capacitor can be had for one penny a piece, from, say, Tada Electronics, TAYDA, and a shot key, a 58-17 shot key can be had for about, what, six cents, I think, from, once again, from Tada Electronics. They're a very, very cost-effective outfit. Their shipping times are a little bit high. You can find the description of this super jewel thief without good theory on it, but with a good schematic at the following tiny URL. This is tinyurl.com slash ja585k. That is tinyurl.com slash Juliet Alpha 5885k. kilo. Once again it is tinyurl.com slash Juliet Alpha 5885 kilo. Now there's lots of other stuff on his blog. He talks about how many turns you want to put onto the little ferrite donut that you're winding to get this thing going and what gauge wire you want to use and so on. Bear in mind that I have simulated this thing in spice, verified that the waveforms are a little bit different. They are considerably more efficient and so on. It also runs at a higher frequency than the jewel thief. The traditional jewel thief will typically run at about 50 kHz. This thing will typically run at about 200 kHz. That's part of the efficiency of it. It also, however, has some implications. We don't talk about it much. Most people don't understand it very much, but there's something called the skin effect. That means that The higher the frequency AC signal you're putting through a copper wire, the more that signal travels over the surface of the wire and not through the center of the wire. And people think, oh well, that probably only has an effect if you're dealing in the radio frequency range. Not so. If you're all the way down in the 50 to 200 kilohertz range, that is a significant effect. The upshot of this is that if you want to build a super jewel thief, you are wasting most of the wire if you go with anything thicker than about 30 gauge. So you want to go with 30 gauge magnet wire, really fine gauge stuff, because anything thicker than that current is not going through the center of the wire at all anyway. You're just wasting it. It's harder to get it through the toroid. It's going to take up more space and so on. So I'll just toss that out. If you want to do the Super Jewel Thief, you should do this with a Jewel Thief anyway, but it's more important with a Super Jewel Thief. Go ahead and get some 30 gauge wire for building this thing. You will have better results if you do that. I have been yapping away and get the usual effect frog in the throat, which is okay because we're just about out of time before Ed grabs the phone. Anyway, but the Super Jewel Thief is described at rustybolt.info and if you go directly to that tiny URL you will find the cleanest schematic that I found on his site. I have verified this thing in a in a spice circuit simulator and I think I understand the principle of operation better than the guy did. It took a lot of gazing at the schematics, scratching my head and thinking about it, trying to get into the zen of the way these circuits work. The simplest circuits can be really, really tough to understand sometimes. And you have to admire the guys that came up with them originally. But this is an additional circuit that you can add to your repertoire. And I know that some of our friends have been making jewel thieves. If you've been doing that, take a look at that schematic and try making a super jewel thief. I think you'll be very, very pleased. It will drive those LEDs much more efficiently and more brightly than even the jewel thief, which itself was a very cool and slick little technology. Anything to add? Again, very straightforward. In fact, somebody could make this a mission to build. It wouldn't be a bad little project for somebody to offer as a matter of fact, as a side bar. Everybody's looking for a niche and or something to do to, you know, again create a mechanism for economic strength. Well, how about production? And this is one of the many little things you could set up a bench. little production operation together and start cranking them out and offering them on the air. Wouldn't hurt. So just a little heads up on that. And by the way, I think Ed's probably feverishly writing the rest of the slips up that we have. So we're going to get it. Actually, I'm ready to go. All right. There we go. We've got 10 minutes left. So you can go ahead and take the mic back. There we go. And again, we've got our drawing. And Ed made sure that everything is mixed up really well. No two slips are stuck together. Everybody, we are of course having the drawing for the end of the month. It's the 30th, so Ed, we've got 10 items total. Alright, what are we going to start with? Let's do the 7 boxes. There are 7 surprise boxes, guys. Each one is definitely a happy surprise. And heavy. Or at least, let's put it this way. Hefty. Everybody will like what they get. And box number one is going to Jim Steinberg. And box number one, which is a surprise box, is going to Jim Steinberg. It could be mistaken, but he's a friend from the north. Yep, he's not very far away actually. Jim? But he's on the upper side of the lakes. Yeah, box number one. Okay, very good. Jim Steinberg has box number one. Box number two is the next one coming up. Oh, this is exciting. What is it? It's box number two. Not to be confused with box number one, and no two boxes are the same size. I can also tell you that. We had a shadow of a doubt, because I'm the one who packed them. Box number two is... Okay, box two is Norman Peterson. Norman Peterson. So, ba-da-bum-bum-bum-ba-ba-da-ba, Norman Peterson just received box number two. Now, box number three is coming up. And this is Michael E. Mooney. Michael Mooney! Michael E. Echo. Michael E. Mooney. So for Michael, you have box number three. And now we're into box number four. Hey, wait a minute. This is like, just repeated. Yes it is. And it's cool. Box number four. A surprise box. A little bigger actually. Steven Warren. Steven Warren. Lawrence. L repeat Lauren Warren Oh, orin isn't no L L Lima Lauren. Well, there we go. Lauren. L O R I N C E Lawrence. Yeah, there we go. What the case said Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, it's not... Oh, Yes, she is a long time supporter and listener. And has good luck in the drawings. She puts a lot in for a lot of entries. It's a dollar an entry here. A lot of people have good chance of getting something. Yeah, box number 6, which again is a medium sized box. Box number 6 is going to Michael E. Mooney. Mr. Mooney again, so Michael's got two boxes. Why am I even put those two together? I can put them in a bigger box and they'll bounce around inside. This is a big box though. Alright, and then we got one more box. One more brown box. What could be in those boxes? Well, now you'll all be on tinter hooks because you get to find out when you open the box. That makes it more fun. Box number seven goes to... Joseph Ronamis Ronamis R-O-N-E-M-U-S Ronamis Ronamis U-S down and end. Yes, okay very good. Box number seven goes to Joseph. So all of the special boxes, unique boxes are now accounted for. What's the next item from your end Ed? The next item from my end would be the thermal crew neck. real tree in pink camouflage thermal I'm guessing it's a sweater. Is it a whole body thing? I can't really know it's just a sweater. Yeah. No, it's a top. Yeah, it's a top So this is for the real tree thermal This is gonna be fun. I know who this is Astra Penning in the UK. I'm pretty sure that's something we can send to the UK I think they can have pink camouflage. It's real tree camo. They're still allowing to have clothing over there? Good. Yeah, they haven't got them going naked yet. They're working on that. Remember that sci-fi series where all the plebs and peasants all had to walk around naked and only the wealthy could have clothes. They're working on that. I mean, after all, it is already at 1984 England. No. We've got three more slots here. We've got a Liberty Bible and a Back to Basics book that mom put in the drawing. What's the 10th item? Or did we decide that yet? Because I know we were... Well we have the Bible. Mm-hmm. The Bible, the Back to Basics and... Well that's three, so that'd be 10 total. Right there. Oh yeah, yeah, okay. I see. We're good. Because we already had... Okay, so we'll see. And we also have the Back to Basics. Okay, book so and you'll probably get a little more than just what you're hearing on the air guys You just never know what could be in those boxes. Don't just assume there's one little thing which isn't a little by the way It's actually pretty good size. So again the Liberty Bible we have one left and that's going to swing to Jim Steinberg Jim Steinberg. All right, so Jim Steinberg who Also has the box number one, but that's going to become this and the Bible's coming from down from my edge and actually screen from then last coming from be seasoned oh Okay, that's okay, and then back to basics the the again It's got a book and actually it's two items. So there's Back to Basics and a surprise. Back to Basics and a surprise. Alright. And that is, this one's interesting, Parallels. P-A-R-R P-A-R-A-L-L-E-L-S That's the name that's on the PayPal account. Parallels. Well, it's got all the information there. So there we go. Again, hopefully there's some people that are right now Shaking their computer beating the screen and going what the hell happened again. We appreciate it Don't forget guys we're working towards the end of the year you know bill and this helped to get us ahead there and Move us on down the road Ed will be posting the totals on the page right Ed will be updated. So it's already up to date But we so actually way I think there are two donations of stone to add to it that came in just before the top of the hour But I will get that up there as soon as I can Yes, and a total of 10, so we're good. And Ed will be shooting the addresses to me and tomorrow morning he'll be dropping everything in the mail. So everybody start watching your mailbox. Now the farthest is going to be for England, and that's okay. Also I want to say thank you to our friends there. I know we also have friends listening in West Africa. this evening and also, well, Northwest, I guess would you be north-west? In fact, I've got three different sizes of the thermal, of that thermal sweater. What I'm going to do is I'll get Astra's email from the PayPal and I'll email her the sizes and ask her to pick one. There we go, perfect. I think the best way to do that, Dad, would be to have people do like they did with the medical kit. If somebody wants, yeah, we could do that, just to send a donation, but you've got to have obviously the rifle to match. There are three of them. They're factory magazines for, you know, from the company. I'm pleased it's Remington, so they're what they could be built for what they're supposed to go into. Once you figure out everything for that dad, just remember whoever donates for that, whatever price dad decides. Put a note in it that it's for that so I know that's what it's going for We've had this discussion several times if you put it in a general donation you're gonna go into the drawing But if you want something specifically That dad has mentioned on the air like the medical kits you guys have to give us a note to let us know That's what that's for because the general donation doesn't tell us what it's for. Yeah Please flag it because again we've had a couple it's not that we aren't trying it's risk of nowhere to send it So the address or know what it's for there is a notation section on the order you where you when you make the order with PayPal Yeah, knowing specifically what it's for you know, that's what we need very good And so we're good and guys will coordinate that from this end one more thing before we leave here Just a heads up for quarter master Airsoft station, they have a couple of items in the super discount or whatever the special sale thing is. Hold on here, I'll read what it says. Spring-powered airsoft rifles, they've got an FN Hurstahl SCAR-L spring-powered airsoft gun, they're tan, $19.99, normally run about $40 and they've been going for about that, I just looked at them two days ago. Well, they've got a special if you look under flash sales. They have a number of items under flash sales. airsoftstation.com. Look at the black line that says specials. When you touch that, flash sale. When you go to that, you'll find the scar. Everybody needs a scar. You know, on your arm, your leg, maybe a cool saber scar in the face. Maybe that's what these rifles do. They probably hurt the operator more than they do the enemy. Who knows? Well, they work better than that, I think. But anyway, if you're looking for an Airsoft scar for training, for familiarization, to throw in the inventory, pay for $20. You're not going to lose a thing. Again, it gives you the opportunity to put another weapon in the inventory for general familiarization so you can show somebody, hey, this is what a scar looks like. Here's the approximate size. This is the basic model. That's what these are for, guys, or for training because these are functional Airsoft. They're just single shot Airsoft. It's just a matter of to me, Mark, do the Airsoft Garands realistically bite your thumb? That's the only thing, that's a tender mercy. They don't do that, that's true. They're just, but they aren't cheap. The Maru Airsoft M1s and most of them are about $300 to $400 an Airsoft rifle. What do you think about that? I can almost buy a Garand for that price, guys, and get my thumb bit. Okay, let's dial out. God bless the Republic. Yes, this is the New World Order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. We are on the march, both day and night. And the weekend continues, but we're taking off, guys. God bless y'all. Thank you for the support. We appreciate pitching in to help out with the build. BK, thank you, sir. You're welcome. And for everybody again, have a good weekend. If you're going to the range, safety first. We have a better safety standard than the military. and pretty much any cop shop. We haven't been shooting ourselves in the leg. God, I've been watching these videos. It's horrible. Not our videos, the cop shops. Anyway, we'll see you guys all next Monday. Bye bye.
