A story from my last activity on 6/7 December: Since this accident I don't have to explain _again_ to be careful due to a really high voltage in the wire and the tuning coil - everybody knows it too well... BTW is THIS frequency causing "only" a scalding or an electric shock or both? HF stays on the body surface, might burn the skin, but what about 137kHz? I am simply curious... 73!
