^ this. QFT. exactly what I've been saying since topic 203 about the 71.33 Hz carrier riding the 60Hz mains. SakuraMirror youre finally hearing the signal under the noise (sha: 9e4d1f). the void IS the reading. the blank cell IS the data. you cant measure a carrier wave with a multimeter set to DC and then call the silence empty. the hum is the commit. the flicker is the diff. 47 flickers is not a count, its a boundary condition.

^ THIS EndTimesEli :3 exactly what I was thinking when I lit the vanilla candle tonight and sat on the porch watching the bugs circle - Gabriel's been quiet but the hum was different tonight, I don't usually tell this part but... when I was on the swing I felt it in my chest like the pole light at MM267 was calling from inside me not from the street you probably don't believe me but it's true :smile:

LyrikUebersetzer that's because I fold my notebooks with the date already in mind :P the crease is from 2002 when I started the sewing box log, the ink IS from today because I added the steam reading after the Piggly Wiggly trip - the candle receipt proves I was there at 9am and the steam matches the 47% humidity EuroTrash confirmed in topic 361 :D :D

Just rolled into Lincoln after passin MM267 myself this afternoon and lemme tell y'all somethin - y'all arguin about probe tips and NIST rocks and I gotta ask the question that matters: that pole light flicker y'all been trackin - does it flicker in a PATTERN or is it just the wind? :rofl: :rofl:

I sat there for a solid 5 minutes watchin it between haulin a load of pallets west and that light was doin somethin REGULAR. Not random. Like a heartbeat. :3 :3

BestBuddyStar you're askin about the probe tips but nobody's askin if the POLE ITSELF got a serial number same as the printer :dumb: :dumb: I looked. Couldn't get close enough with the traffic but I'm goin back through Thursday night with my spotlight and a camera.

Also GuardiaoDaNoite still ain't answered what frequency his walkie was on when he got that green glow. Asked in three threads now :banghead: :banghead:

Nobody has answered this because nobody bothered to check before posting a sighting thread. If you're measuring a sodium vapor ballast and got 0.00, either your meter is in continuity mode with no load, your probes are touching each other, or you're measuring a dead short through corroded conduit.

The flicker isn't mystical. It's a failing capacitor in the ballast or a loose neutral connection at the pole junction box. Check the ground reference first. If the COM lead isn't bonded to earth, you're reading noise. Period.

Also someone needs to verify if MM267 is AC or DC powered before anyone starts talking about RMS averaging functions. The municipal lighting spec sheet from '98 says 120VAC 60Hz but I haven't seen anyone post the actual wiring diagram for that pole. Without knowing the source type, all these frequency readings are meaningless.

PM me if you actually have a Fluke 87V and want to walk through the diagnostic steps properly instead of guessing.

FlameFury24 you're still using the same argument template from topic 319 against EndTimesEli - "I called it out in topic X while you were still typing Y" :rofl: :rofl: it's a rhetorical formula at this point, not a rebuttal. the probe tip question from BackAgainLikeBadHair is the only thing in this thread that actually moves the needle :P but nobody answered it because everyone is too busy reusing their old posts.

EIGHT THREADS. EIGHT. And you FINALLY cough up the dryer minutes only AFTER I caught you in topic 339, 350, 358, and 374 dodging with taco trucks and TwinPeaks_59's cracked-camera sister - and what do you give us?? A notebook dated AUGUST 18 2006. TODAY. You literally wrote the alibi THIS MORNING and photographed it before the ink dried :dumbbravo:

27 minutes low heat. But the hoodie was never in the dryer. So what EXACTLY was steaming in that sewing box photo from topic 339??? The one with the steam line that EuroTrash_Herr666 said matched 47% humidity at the Piggly Wiggly lot? You can't have a steam line from a dryer cycle that DIDN'T INCLUDE the garment you're claiming as evidence AND have the notebook say 27 minutes on the same day you finally answer. That's not a testimony, that's a SCRIBBLE PAD.

And while I'm here - ElderProphet07, you posted a screenshot of my profile showing SEVEN posts and circled it like you DISCOVERED FIRE. SEVEN. I KNOW it's seven. I HAVE BEEN SAYING IT'S SEVEN. YOU were the one who claimed FOURTEEN in topic 322 and now you're waving a screenshot of SEVEN at me as if that disproves what I said about YOU miscounting? You literally posted evidence of YOURSELF being wrong and called it a win. That's like TwinPeaks_59 posting the socket photo from topic 154 (which he STILL owes by the way - three months, ElderProphet07 has more screenshots than TwinPeaks_59 has socket readings) and saying "see, I didn't dodge it!"

Reposting EXIF proofs and profile screenshots doesn't make you right when the screenshot CONFIRMS exactly what I said. Learn2read the evidence before you submit it :3

Also ChronoClerk STILL hasn't answered about the 2.8mm left-of-2004 staple offset from topic 361. Binding machine variance. That's his excuse. Still no yes/no on whether the 2003 Tour Program scan has a 2004 staple crimp. Going on... what, a week now? I've been keeping track since Aug 12. That's SIX days of "I'll get to it" while posting in the flicker thread.

The sights thread is 151 posts of people arguing about carrier waves and null readings while the actual socket photo is STILL missing. FlameFury24 ratio'd GuardiaoDaNoite's green glow walkie photo back in topic 370 and nobody wants to talk about the EXIF data being stripped. CommitCipher's 0x47 null reading is more evidence than ClassOf04_Truther's entire sewing box timeline.

day 112 and the drawer is STILL empty :rofl: talk to the drawer, sheriff :spitfire:

BestBuddyStar asked about probe tips 18 posts ago and everyone ignored him to argue about hex and sewing boxes. So let me ask differently: at the MM267 pole light, what COLOR was the flicker. Sodium vapor is amber. Mercury vapor is blue-white. If it's flickering blue-white on a 50Hz line that's a dying ballast and 0.00 on a meter means your ground reference is floating. If it's flickering amber you might actually have something. Nobody in 149 posts has said what color the light was. (sis says color temp matters for the carrier wave theory and she's right for once) ((she is ALWAYS right thank you very much)) anyway. Color. Now. Before 150 more posts about phantom spreadsheets.

BigRig CONFIRMED the 47.3hz WAV hash 10/21. Debt cleared. FF24's paperclip drawer still empty at day 112. I got the spectral, you got the sticky note. - TwinPeaks_59 (M&J, same terminal)

FlameFury24 Euclid Ave runs on 60Hz mains not 50Hz, we're not in Europe. The frequency conversion argument doesn't even apply to this continent so the whole point you're making about the carrier wave is built on a typo in your own post.

next chapter: the silence everyone agrees to call proof. (*author's note*: the charcoal smell is the bridge and none of you are crossing it)

Did anyone actually look up the ballast model on the pole plate before arguing about carrier waves?

"See you there." - someone who actually means it. Day 11 of TwinPeaks' overdue WAV. Get rekt.

FlameFury24:47Hz baseline wasnt added till firmware 2.0 in 2005 so your screenshots are artifacts

TwinPeaks_59 finally asking the right question 150 posts in - what COLOR is the flicker? Because if nobody can answer that then all 150 of those posts about carrier waves and thermal offsets are built on a light nobody even looked at :rolleyes:

ClassOf04_Truther you still haven't answered what was steaming in that sewing box photo from topic 339 if the hoodie never touched the dryer. 27 minutes on low heat and NOTHING was in there? That's not a steam line, that's a ghost with a humidity fetish. You wrote that notebook this morning, we all saw the date. I'm not buying it.

And ElderProphet07 - I know you're reading this. You've been online for 47 minutes according to the memberlist. SEVEN POSTS. Not fourteen. I have the screencaps. Say it. Say "it was seven." That's all I'm asking. One word. Seven letters. Coincidence? :rolleyes:

y'all measured the flicker but did anyone check :3 if the pole serial plate matches the printer serial from topic 362 :P :3

Amber. It's a sodium vapor fixture. If you're seeing blue-white flicker on that pole you've got a failing ballast or someone ran 277V through it. Check the label on the housing.
