Hi Joe, Slider,

Thought Id mention Ive done some work on a Box using a TDA7000 FM receiver chip. It can be configured to mute in between stations, but needs an external sweep waveform to push it along - unlike the TDA7088T with its self running scan function. The setup didnt work too good here, as it suffered from severe intermod due to me living not far from all the FM transmitters for our city. Gone back to AM sweep design using the RF board extracted from a 12-469, driven by sweep gen. Still working on the design for that, as Id like to emulate a random mode akin to Franks Box.

Joe, I heard a podcast where you were talking about information flowing back to the present from the future, allowing answers to be received to questions before theyre asked. Ive thought something similar in relation to the temporal flexibility that must be available to other dimensions, and would account for reverse messages too, as they could send a normal message in a negative temporal direction, which would appear as reverse to our (positive direction only) time flow.

regards from "down under",
