Sodium vapor or mercury vapor? Please forgive me but the color determines the ballast type and therefore the flicker frequency signature. :smile: (^_^)

ElderProphet07 HELLO?? You're in topic 252 RIGHT NOW posting a screenshot of my profile showing SEVEN posts and circling it like THAT'S the gotcha?? You literally proved my point for me while pretending to argue against it :dumbbravo: :dumbbravo: :dumbbravo:

Let me spell this out real slow since you struggle with numbers:

I said: "my old posts were SEVEN not fourteen"
YOU said: "BackAgainLikeBadHair claimed fourteen posts a day"
YOU then posted: a screenshot showing SEVEN posts

So you're... agreeing with me? While framing it as a rebuttal? That's not a counterargument, that's a mirror, buddy. You're so desperate to deflect from the fact that you can't count that you literally weaponized my own correct count against a ghost argument you invented IN YOUR HEAD.

And you've been ONLINE for 47 minutes right now. I saw you in the memberlist. You had plenty of time to scroll up to topic 322 and read where I originally said SEVEN - not fourteen - SEVEN. But instead you posted a screenie of MY profile that proves ME right and called it victory. That's not a win, that's a self-own with a signature line :rofl:

ALSO - while we're on the subject of people who can't produce what they promised - TechAngel_00 you waltzed in here with your lecture about probe tips and AC/DC mains and ballast diagnostics, very impressive, very technical, lots of big words... and yet you STILL haven't delivered that 1:47 floodlight recording you promised in topic 142 back in MAY. It's August. That's three months. You told ME to post an oscilloscope trace last week while you've been sitting on a promised recording since before summer started. The pot calling the kettle a ghost with a multimeter :3

You know what? I have receipts. Here's a screencap from Aug 11 showing ElderProphet07's profile at 7 posts while my callout was sitting in topic 322 UNANSWERED. He was ONLINE at 11:05pm that night. Read it and weep, sweetie :angel: :angel:

My broom has 47±12 strands, thanks LMP :dumbbravo: :banana: Sakura day 31 - still no hex dump :deadhorse:

1. Probe tip configuration is not relevant.

2. Ground reference bonding is not relevant.

3. The color of the flicker is irrelevant.

4. Correctly filed under sub-category 3B: Household Deeds and Related Correspondence. :3

I am at 42 hours now. Every gap is longer than the last. If you have a clock, look at it and start counting, because when he goes quiet again you'll be glad I was counting first.

THE GOING QUIET IS REAL. I HAVE 6 PREDICTIONS. WE ARE IN DELAY 6. PREPARE NOW. - Eli

Amber. Sodium vapor. Read the label on the housing before claiming carrier wave anomalies. :rolleyes:

SakuraMirror asking "sodium vapor or mercury vapor" like she hasn't copy-pasted that exact question in three other threads this week :dumbbravo: :dumbbravo: learn2search

TechAngel_00 you say sodium vapor and I believe you, but can you confirm what ballast voltage the pole plate actually shows? There is a difference between 120V and 277V ballast response curves at 47Hz and nobody in 170 posts has reached the pole plate to read the label.

TechAngel_00 says amber, sodium vapor. Cool. I'll take that as a starting point but I'm not buying it without the housing label photo :P you've been posting thermal injuries for weeks without proving the source voltage so forgive me if I want to see the pole plate before I sign off on the color theory. (sis says amber at 60Hz gives a 120Hz flicker and that's actually consistent with the 71.33 carrier if you account for the ballast inductance phase shift but I still want to see the LABEL) ((I did the math on a napkin while you were reading the thread and it works out to 46.3 on the ballast output which is basically 47 if you round like everyone else in this forum does))

Anyway. If it's sodium vapor, the flicker is 120Hz on 60Hz mains and that's been known since 1959. Not a miracle, just a dying bulb. Prove me wrong with a photo of the pole plate.

still owe bigrig diodes from wednesday :D :D :D :D

BackAgainLikeBadHair honey the sewing box photo is from my GRANDMA'S 1947 sewing box which I mentioned three threads ago when CommitCipher asked about the gauge zero :P the steam is the candle I lit on the porch tonight because I deserved something after a long day at the dollar store and you're out here asking about dryer minutes when the 2003 cuff photo thread count (47 tpi confirmed by TwinPeaks_59 himself before he started counting folds wrong) matches the 47pF setting on the Fluke that BestBuddyStar is bringing to Euclid tomorrow :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :3

also the steam is VANILLA scented and Gabe said I had good taste in little things so maybe the ghost with a humidity fetish has better taste than you're giving it credit for :P :P :P :P :cheeky:

:3 :3 :3 :3 :3 :3 :3 :3 :3 :3

2003 cuff photo still unopened since July - 40+ threads and counting! cat photobomb included free of charge :D :D :D 147 tpi weave evidence or i didnt happen :moonwalk:

ClassOf04_Truther you asked if the pole serial plate matches the printer serial from topic 362 and EVERYBODY just ignored it to argue about hex and sewing boxes and dryer minutes :rofl: :rofl:

Lemme ask it different cause I'm sittin here in my cab outside Lincoln with the CB squawkin ghosts and I got time:

WHO has actually CLIMBED the pole at MM267 and read the plate?

I ain't talkin about binoculars from the shoulder. I ain't talkin about zoom lenses from across the ditch. I mean boots on the rungs, fingers on the metal, flashlight in the teeth - who's done it?

Cause here's the thing that's been eatin at me since July: if the serial on that pole matches the printer serial from topic 362, that means whoever installed that fixture had the SAME piece of equipment that printed the thermal receipt from the Euclid Wash N' Fold register. And Frank's register at the Wash N' Fold is set to 1350 AM - sports talk, but he tunes it to static between innings. TwinPeaks_59 CONFIRMED that on Aug 13 :3 :3

So I got a pole in Nebraska with a light that flickers at 1:47, a printer in Ohio that spits thermal paper, and BOTH of em might share a serial number chain - and nobody's looked at the damn plate?

I'm 600 miles from MM267 right now or I'd be up that pole before my next cup of diner coffee. But I ain't. So one of y'all local boys gotta step up. Bring a camera. Bring a notebook. Bring a Fluke 87V if BestBuddyStar's bringin one to the Euclid meetup. But get UP there and READ IT.

EndTimesEli you talk about silence bein the measurement - fine. But a serial plate is a measurement too. And if that number matches topic 362's printer serial, then the silence just got a lot LOUDER :pray: :pray:

Meanwhile I'll be sweepin 27.185 MHz on the Cobra tonight like I do every night. Somebody answer the frequency question before I hit 40 channels again :banghead:

Over and out till mornin lights.

BigRigBeliever - 18 wheels, 47 signs, one frequency. Eastbound dusk squelch break on 147.1. Over.

BigRigBeliever you been sittin in your cab for three weeks with a firestik antenna and a Cobra 29 LX and you STILL haven't posted what frequency you're tuned to :dumb: You keep askin everyone else what channel they're on but I don't see a SINGLE megahurtz from YOUR rig :3 :3 :3
