Right Bob I can't read your mind. You wrote a post in a way that would only be meaningful to someone who had experience with a specific piece of fairly esoteric test equipment.

Now an Agilent E4980A LCR Meter at $15,000 that's esoteric.

I said i got no rings, and that about guarantees a shorted turns. You (who obviously doesn't know about ringers), says it appears to be contradictory. So, you obviously thought you knew something about ringers to make your statement "that appears to be self contradictory". If you did no know what a ringer or ring test on a coil was, goggle was a few key strokes away. The proper response would have been, I don't know about how ring tests work. Can you tell me how or supply a link? (which i eventually did). I am milady surprise with your wide knowledge base you did not know how a basic piece of electronic test gear works I see you have not took up my challenge to reverse engineer the coils values. Guess your not up for a challenge today. bob ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Unrestricted-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =----

So, you obviously thought > you knew something about ringers to make your statement "that > appears to be self contradictory". I know that this will make your day Bob, but I've never heard of a shorted-turn tester called a ringer. I said that the usage appeared to be contrdictory for that reason. Therefore your claim that I thought I knew what a ringer was is completely false. > If you did no know > what a ringer or ring test on a coil was, goggle was a few key strokes > away. I just googled "ringer shorted turn" and nothing popped up that was obviously relevant in the first few pages. Ditto for "ring test". |
