Chuck,

i know you are not making this up and i'm trying to follow you. You don't have to be an authority. Bucky Fuller, the inventor of the geodesic dome once said; " ideas are out there floating around for someone to get them". I was an electronics technician 30 years ago and used lab scopes way before they became popular in the automotive field, but that was 30 years ago. Hopefully I still understand some of the rules of electron theory. Are you measuring this voltage on the DC scale or the AC scale? It sounds like you are coming up with a peak to peak or root means square AC reading. I appreciate your input, Chuck. You have always been a great help to people on this site.

Thanks,
Peter
