Hi Joe,

The real experts can answer this in detail, but Dr. Jon has been here
with his recent surprise finding that CS works.  He's right, of
course, but some of his opinions are a little bit strong -- and can be
misleading.

For example, the fish tank bubbler is good -- but so are several other
water-stirring methods.  

The simplest to use is a CS generator that has a current controlled
generator (Dr. Jon doesn't do this) and a stirring motor built into a
box that sits on top of a jar containing distilled water.  Long, flat
silver electrodes are attached to the bottom of the box so they are
immersed in the water.  You turn the power on and the circuit tells
you if you have "pure enough" distilled water.  Then the circuit
produces the correct amount of current to produce great CS, all the
while measuring the conductivity of the colloidal suspension.  When
the conductivity rises to the proper amount (which you can set with a
dial), the circuit shuts off -- but keeps the stirring motor going.
IOW, it's a "set and forget" method for making CS, and is, by far, the
easiest CS maker to use, IMO.

Dr. Jon's somewhat correct about silver particle size, but even his
sizes are larger than good CS.

The purpose of a Rife machine is to produce electric currents within
the body in the microamp range at certain frequencies.  The RF in the
tube is simply a method of producing the pulses that will affect the
body.  All the rest of the equipment (the CB transmitter with linear
amplifier, etc.) is to drive the tube with enough power to achieve the
effect.  Since the original device was made in the era of vacuum
tubes, his method was about the only "easy" way of generating the
desired pulses.

In his later years (1950's), Rife (and associates) switched to
direct-connected pulses instead of the indirect RF tube machine.  That
is, wires from the pulse generator were attached to copper plates
which were applied across the body.  The invention of the transistor
made low voltage pulse generators much easier to design.

Today, all it takes is a 555 timer IC to produce the same effects as
the original Rife device.  The 555 is wired as an astable
multivibrator, and the outputs (ground and signal) are applied across
the body -- usually 9 to 12 volts, limited to around 2 mA by a 1 k
resistor in series with the signal lead.

Not only is the 555 much cheaper, it can produce a very good square
wave, which the earlier machines couldn't easily achieve.  Since a
square wave contains multiple harmonically related frequencies, you
get a spectrum of "kill" frequencies from each base frequency setting
(in fact, you get so many that, for all practical purposes, you can
forget about having a table of frequencies -- all of them will be
hit).

BTW, the actual 555 timer device was rediscovered, and made popular,
by Dr. Hulda Clark, a PhD physiologist.  She named it the "zapper."
