Tune in to Electrosmog
Listen to EMF soundscapes
Published in issue 344, June 2005
The debate concerning the possible harmful effects of electrical and magnetic alternating fields in our environment goes on. The only thing that everyone seems to agree on is that you cannot see or smell these fields. No longer true! Build this simple electrosmog detector and add two extra senses to the five that you already have.
Resistors:
R1,R3 = 10k
R2,R4 = 100k
R5 = 1k
Capacitors:
C1,C3,C4 = 10µF 16V radial
C2 = 220µF 16V radial
Semiconductors:
T1,T2,T3 = BC547B (for T1 also BC549C, see text)
Miscellaneous:
S1 = on/off switch, 1 contact
Bt1 = AA battery (preferably alkali-manganese) with holder
K1 = 3.5-mm jack socket, stereo (see text)
K2 = 3-way PCB terminal block, 5mm lead pitch
PCB, ref. 040424-1 from the PCBShop
L1 = pickup coil, if necessary with ferrite core (see text)
ANT = length of wire (see text)
