Mayf;
The $600 price for those government toilet seats probably just about
covered the cost of that vendor's government- required paperwork.
One of the many, many, legal documents that are required of government
contractors is a document stating that they have not employed any prison
labor in the manufacture of the product, and it must be signed by an
officer of the corporation. No kidding!

Subject: Re: Wheel Slip/Spin Meter
And great ideas they are, Dave! I have an analog breadboard system and
it
has different kinds of signal outputs like sine square, etc and a signa;
generator, so I can fiddle with this on th bench to see if it will work.
ANd
since I am mechanical by nature, this may be a big fat turkey and a dud.
Wont know tilltried howeve, so today will be off to get parts. The bar
graph
driver has more spots so can implement the "on" and working lights.
Regulated power suppy is likewise a very good idea and not hard to
implement. Yeah the R12 resistor can be a pot. i had already done some
figuring on the trigger for the sensor and that was why I suggested the
abs
system. The driven wheel sensor could also be on the driveshaft. I love
the
negative slip - serious implications tothat one lol. The idea of a built
in
calibrator is also a very good thought. The 555's could be easily put in
place and a rotary switch to input the signalsto the F/V converter made
for
calibration. A cal switch to change the output frequencies at fixed
stages
also is a good idea.
now I see once again why we have 600 dollar toilet seats for the
government.
The requirement just keep getting better and better.
Thanks again, Dave, you da man..
mayf out in Pahrump, cold wintry blustery lots of new snow on the
mountain
