Hi Doug, It was great to chat with you. Here is a brief summary of the technical details we spoke (Doug, correct me if I cite something incorrectly). Staying with the question how could someone show and demonstrate the amount of current the oscillator pumps into the circuit, there are a

Actually the oscillator is producing about the same current it would into a short circuit, 40 mA) because it is driving a very low impedance of a series resonant circuit! Istvan, let’s talk on the phone to save s lot of typing. Doug Smith Sent from my iPhone IPhone: 408-858-4528 Office:

Hi Istvan, If I connect the oscillator directly to the scope chassis, I get similar readings at different frequencies. I generally get less amplitude as well. The small capacitance between the scope and oscillator is capable of tuning the whole system to a low input impedance on the probe end.
