Wayne, you wrote: "That seems wrong to me, but I think it is legally correct. Probably is wrong ethically, but I don't believe there is any basis in law that protects an unpatented device from being copied and sold."
Wayne, No one here is an attorney and the arguments are based mostly on speculation. I think it's an importnat point of discussion, but in this case we are WAY past the point of constructive banter. It's importmant for the ART sponsors to know where they stand legally on thier designs. "Thinking" and "believing" are not acceptable comfort words in this situation.
Legally, Doug can or cannot make the transformers to his specification using whatever topology he has uncovered from unwindings. There is no grey area. PERIOD.
Mike, if you have a letter from your attorney stating you have exclusive rights to a 50+ year old transformer design, please post it. Also, file a C&D......Colin
