June 10th, 1994. Below is the patent of Frank Wyatt Prentice. This patent is similar to the "one mile wire experiment" (see AETHRTAP.ASC file on Keelynet BBS). Apparently, the number of the patent seems to be wrong. Sorry for this; the first page of my copy in front of me refers to this number (US patent). Where is the bug?... Anyway, here is the transcript of this patent. You will find the drawings in the PRENTICE.GIF file. If you experiment something with these informations, let me know your results! (on Keelynet BBS).

OPERATION OF THE INVENTION: Having described the drawings will now describe the operation of my invention. Throw switch 3 connecting feed wires 1 and 2 with transformer leads 6 and 7, adjust spark gap 10 and condensr 11 so that a frequency of 500,000 and 100,000 volts is delivered from secondary leads 14 and 15 of step up transformer 8 of Figure 1. Next adjust spark gap 21 of transmission antennae 14 so that all nodes and peaks are eliminated in the transmission of the 100,000 volts and 500,000 frequency along said antennae 14, by the surges occurring pass over the gap 21 to lead 22 to adjustable condenser 23 to lead 24 to ground 24' thence the high frequency current of 500,000 passes in return through ground to ground 18 tence up lead 17 to adjustable condenser 16 to lead 15 to secondary winding 13 of transformer 8. The oscillatory current of 100,000 and frequency of 500,000 being of the same frequency as the earth generated currents and thus in tune with same it naturally follows that accumulation of the earth currents will ASSIMILATE WITH THE SAME TUNED CIRCUITS and frequency with those of the output from transformer 8 along wires 14 affording a reservoir of high frequency currents to be drawn upon by a tuned circuit HAVING THE SAME CHARACTERISTICS of 500,000 frequency capacity which is shown in Figure 2. The antennae 25 is tuned fundamentally to receive a frequency of 500,000 which current passes to lead 26 through winidng 27' of transformer 27 thence to lead wire 28 through adjustable condenser 29 to lead wire 30 to ground 31. The high frequency currents of 500,000 and voltae of 100,000 passes through to winding 32 and by adjustable condenser 33 and windings 34 and 35 of the frequency transformer 27 is stepped down to a voltage and frequency suitable to operate motor 38 receiving current from leads 36 and 37. This makes available a current supply for any purpose what ever, such as operation of areoplanes, automobiles, railway trains and current for industrial plants, lighting, heating and etc... The return of current through the earth from transmission antennae 14 is preferable to a metallic return as a higher percentage of accumulation of earth currents is noticeable on receiving antennae of Figure 2 than from a metallic return accountable for because of the condenser effect the grounded circuit affords. I also prefer under certain conditions to use a single antennae receiving wire in place of the closed loop shown in Figure 2. Under certain operation requirements I have found it expedient to have the transmission antennae elevated and carried on poles many feet above the earth and in that case a DIFFERENT voltage and frequency WAS NECESSARY to accumulate earth currents along the transmission antennae 14.
WHAT I CLAIM IS:
- 1. In an Electrical Power Accumulator, a syncronized oscillatory circuit parallel with and in proximity to earth adapted to accumulate and utilize current generated by the earth.
- 2. In an Electricial Power Accumulator, a syncronized oscillatory circuit having same frequency as the earth generated currents, said circuit parallel with and in proximity to the earth, said circuit adapted to accumulate and utilize current generated by the earth rotating on ist axis.
- 3. In a Electrical Power Accumulator, a high frequency oscillatory generator grounded on one side with a connected antennae grounded at further end through a spark gap said antennae adapted to oscillate and radiate earth accumulated currents.
- 4. In a Electrical Power Accamulator, a high frequency oscillatory generator grounded on one side with a connected antennae grounded at further end through a spark gap said antennae adapted to oscillate and radiate earth accumulated currents and receiving means adapted to utilize said radiated earth accumulated currents said means syncronized to pick up and utilize said radiated earth currents.
- 5. In an Electrical Power Accumulator, a syncronized oscillatory circuit parallel with and in proximity to earth adapted to accumulate and utilize current generated by the earth using syneronised means to pick up at a distance therefrom said radiated earth currents.
- 6. In an Electrical Power Accumulator, a syncronized oscillatory circuit having same frequency as the earth generated currents, said oscillatory circuit parallel with and in proximity to the earth, said oscillatory circuit adapted to accumulated and radiate current generated by the earth rotating on its axis and means adapted to utilize said sycronized accumulated earth currents, picked up at a distance from said oscillatory radiating circuit.

Vanguard Note We should all applaud Louis for this magnificent file. At the last ISNE conference, a private conversation with an old friend brought up this story which is related in the file AETHRTAP.ASC. Louis took the file down, made the correlation with Prentice out of his library, typed it up, drew in the diagram and sent it to us to share with everyone here. This is the kind of effort and thoughtfulness that we really must all appreciate and copy wherever we can. Once it is in digital form, it benefits UNTOLD other researchers who might not have ever heard of it.
