but it's not a very complicated or legitamate arguement you guys are making. why does it need a something complicated.Mike is a fool for believing he has complete control over an ancient design. His tactics are the same as the last time he got into a public disagreement.
The first time I saw Jute's name mentioned on AA there was a whole lot of 'be quiet you'll wake up his ghost'. No mention of the nastiness contributed by your parts supplier Mike.
as to this one>>>What sort of silly question is this? it is obvious, and either you're blind and foolish( unlikely ), or you think it can't happen to you. Why not ask him how a CT choke works. How half the turns can have both half and a quarter the end to end inductance. Maybe another question is needed, in case Mike as actually learned something. For the record, I doubt it. The RAT war didn't teach him anything useful, chief among them being that as the last one standing, you can rewrite history to suit the story/audience at hand. Mike is a nasty control freak, and the proof is all over this forum, and RAT. If you still need his personal goodwill, and/or wish to remain one of his customers, I can see why you'd choose to ignore the truth, and actually deny it. There is no other reason to support his position, and only those who fall into those categories are doing it.
Like I said, it is quite simple.
cheers,
