Yes Bob I realise that I am pushing things rather a lot, hence the big shift
in emitter resistance ,
however it does work and others may be interested.
Regarding the mechanism behind your idea could it possibly be a form of
Miller effect as in valve
technowledgy ? perhaps the base emitter capacitance depends on the emitter
current.
Hopefully someone oin this group more knowlegable than me can comment.
