Hi Jim,
I also smell a scam. A very expensive one. From Bruce Tainio's web
site,
"The BT3 Frequency Monitoring System sells for $2,800.00 plus
shipping, and comes with a sturdy carrying case and instructions."
http://www.tainio.com/ir/frqmonitor/index.htm
There is no measurable radiation from the human body at these
frequencies. You cannot measure it with an antenna and spectrum
analyzer. I owned a HP 8568A spectrum analyzer for many years and
can absolutely guarantee there is no measurable radiation from the
human body at 50MHz. Or from bottles of oil, or lumps of soil.
Here is a page with a picture of my HP 8568:
http://makeashorterlink.com/?H2EA35C09
The frequency counter used in the BT3 is a cheap Tenmec. The bid
prices for used units start at $0.99 on Ebay. I have a Radio Shack
unit that is very similar except it doesn't measure period.
The main ic in the counter is simply a high-gain amplifier driving a
limiter. The output of the limiter goes to a standard frequency
counter circuit.
When there is no input signal, the counter reads approximately 50 to
65 MHz. It is simply counting the random zero crossings of the input
noise after the amplifier. The frequency is not stable and responds
to stray capacity effects as you place you hand near the counter.
As mentioned in the description, the unit is extremely sensitive to
radio interference from monitors, cpus, local transmitters, etc:
"What makes this frequency meter unique is it's extremely
sensitive sensor. Because of it's high sensitivity, background
interference will usually have to be taken into account. It does
take some practice and patience at first. It is easier to use if
you find a place in your home, laboratory or office that has as
little electromagnetic interference as possible, then always use
your meter in that area if you can. The meter may not give you a
zero reading to start with; but a room with minimal interference
from radios, computers, etc. is better because you can establish a
base line to work with."
He discusses this further in "Instructions for the BT3 Frequency
Monitoring System":
"Unless you find yourself on a deserted Pacific island, the signal
you intend to measure is not the only one reaching the counter's
sensor. Once the sensor is attached to the counter, every signal
besides the one of interest becomes a source of interference and
the second sensitivity limitation. The level of these incidental
signals can be quite large, in fact, and usually is the limiting
factor in bio-frequency measurement."
"Local AM, FM, and TV transmitters broadcast with hundreds of
kilowatts and yield an RF background that obscures all
measurements. Again, since the desired signal must exceed all
others by 10-15dB, this difference in level can only be achieved
by getting the counter much closer to the desired source. Thus,
touching the Bio-sensor on the spot or object to be read, will
increase the level performance of the system."
There is no description of how the bio-sensor operates. However,
there are no signals generated by the body, so any measurements are
basically random circuit noise or perhaps local interference. The
readings are meaningless.
Here is a description of this effect in a similar counter:
"It is quite normal for the SAB6456A prescaler device to oscillate
lightly at about 60 - 70 MHz when there is no input signal. This
effect is described in the Philips data sheet. It is easy to tell
when this is happening, because the reading will not be stable. As
soon as a good signal is received, the oscillation stops."
http://www.qsl.net/zl1bpu/micro/CNTR/Prescaler.htm
However, there is no way a signal can come from the body, as Tainio
claims. His BT3 instrument is a scam.
There are indications of additional scams on his web pages. He sells
a Concerto EMF Protector to protect against negative effects of
Electromagnetic Fields (EMF's) from computers, fax machines and
copiers.
http://www.tainio.com/ir/concerto/index.htm
This amazing machine also makes Yamaha player piano produce "deeper
quality sound, crisper and cleaner." And he uses Kirlian photography
to claim "positive body energy changes".
http://www.tainio.com/ir/concerto/graph.htm
Unfortunately, Kirlian photography has been thoroughly discredited
as a measurement tool. I posted links to the analysis a year ago or
so.
There is no way a machine like this could work. The only way to
shield against EMF is a completely enclosed shielded room. These are
available commercially and run hundreds of thousands of dollars for
a good one.
This machine is also a scam.
Best Wishes,
Mike Monett
