What do you mean Tom, "can come from the supply"...........of course that
is PRECISELY where it comes from !!!! .....and that is EXACTLY what I said
in my original post which was so loudly disputed by more learned minds.
I think these discussions would be more productive if our personal biases
weren't immediately applied to the postings and we carefully read what is
written instead of making assumptions. You will notice that I have yet to
mention parasitic oscillations or RF excitaion and yet that is all you want
to talk about.
