Gee, I just had a thought that might bring this back
onto topic.
Try Divining/dowsing over a non-working piece of ham gear, maybe
it might work to find the bad part(s)....I'm serious, and until
someone who has success with dowsing tries this, how we we know
if it does or doesn't! It'll have to be tried both turned off,
and then energized with power.
(since it seems to work depending on what
the person is looking for, maybe it just
might point out the defective part. If it
does, would THAT be a breakthru!)
