Yes! You change the speed and you change the frequency, the wavelength
stays the same!

Sometimes it's frequency that changes when the speed changes. Sometimes
it's wavelength. Sometimes it's both.

A change in speed does not necessarily mean a great deal of dispersion and
scattering. Anyway, in the case of a binary pair, most unification takes place
in their near vicinity.

You can't change the frequency, it's fixed at 50 Hz European and 60 Hz USA.
Try not to be ridiculous.

You can't change the frequency and you can't change the marks around the
turntable. You can only change the speed from 33 RPM to 45 RPM to 78 RPM.
Try not to be fuckin' stupid.

End of Wilson's time compression, he never made that discovery.
In his desperate attempt to support his crank unifuckation theory
he's contradicted yourself. He is fuckin' senile. Poor old ozzie
sheep shagger, his brain no longer functions. Get off the plonk, Wilson.

Wilson accepts Einstein's GR time dilation and SR second postulate.

There is not experimental evidence that clarifies this question but one would
think intuitively that if light arrives ar a mirror with relative speed c+v it
will reflect at the same relative speed. However, if you look at thoeries about
reflection, it is possible that the mirror acts like a new source and the
reflected light moves at c relative to the mirror and NOT c+v. If that were the
case, one might also expect the incident angle to be different from the
reflected angle..

Well I wasn't saying anything about doppler shift. BaTh defines light frequency
as the 'number of wavecrests arriving per second' a quantity that is clearlt
speed dependent. Doppler shift in BaTh is just (c+v)/c

No. My theory is still evolving. That's why I have to keep considering the
criticisms from the relativist morons here.
