Excuse me, but if there is no change in the field, it will not make
anything resonate. I'll look at the url you included later and see what
they say. If they say that it is a constant, non varying magnetic field,
then I say they are wrong. I took my VX-5 handheld radio and listened
outside the lab while my wife was in the MRI machine. And I heard lots
of varying pulse rates and bandwidth signals around the 60 MHz area.
What I heard defininately came from the MRI machine, and it is not
surprising that water molecules have a resonance around 60 MHz, human
bodys being mostly water. Also the spare 3CX800A7s that I have for my
Titan 425 are pulls from a MRI machine. If it was a constant magnetic
field and not a varying one (at RF frequencies where ther are resonances
with things in the body) they could just use a switch of some sort and
not need a power amplifier tube>
