Seems like it's time for ERPS to start experimenting with electrically heated catalysts. Platinum would be a good candidate but it's damned expensive. We need something cheap and durable that is a crappy catalyst at low temperatures but works at high temperatures and is easy to heat electrically. Would tungsten work or would that have to be too hot? -- Sean R. Lynch KG6CVV http://www.chaosring.org/~seanl/
