Tom Bearden on Art Bell's Antenna

[Bob73]

After Art Bell told us about his new long wire antenna
he built at his home in the Nevada desert and how he
was getting shocked with about 400 volts that was
mysteriously getting onto the wire , I thought about
if he really was puzzled as to why this was happening.
I Emailed Tom Bearden (Former military man, Phd.,
author of many books about Free Energy and scalar
energy weapons.) He answered my message overnight
and this is what he said:

Dear Bob,

Yes, there is a well-known high voltage between the electrosphere and the earth's surface.

It increases by some 200 to 300 volts per meter when you go up from the ground. One can easily erect an elevated wire to get 1,000 or more volts.

During WW II, our troops in the jungles of the pacific found that the trees show this voltage gain with height. So they actually put the antenna connection wire into the trees (up a ways) and used the trees as a sort of "high voltage antenna".

Worked nicely, I'm told by some of the old timers who were there. Probably could Google it off the Web, because someone is almost certain to have written about it.

For a power system, there isn't much current with the high voltage one gets from such an antenna. However, it is possible to use circuits in an "inverted" manner, such that (at least momentarily) the current is pinned and essentially zero. By switching the high voltage onto pinned Drude electrons, one potentializes them freely. In physics, gauge freedom guarantees that one can change the potential and potential energy of a system freely and at will., and changing the VOLTAGE ONLY is just asymmetrical regauging. What one looks at is the capacitance of the circuit, but in "pinned Drude charges" state momentarily. That way applying voltage is just pure energy transfer; there is no "power" and no "work" because there is no current.

Once the energy is transferred, then the source (the hi voltage antenna) is switched away, and the pinned system converted into the standard closed loop circuit. One puts in diodes which force the direction of current only in the direction desired. The system then discharges its free energy in the load, power it for a bit. By reiterating the cycle, one powers the load mostly by regauging, and taking free electrical energy from the atmospheric potential between the ground and the electrosphere.

At least a few of the very older inventors made systems such as that, back in the old days about the turn of the century at 1900 or so. Then we got onto "modern circuits" and all that was lost.

Best wishes,
Tom Bearden

Hello Tom Bearden,

I purchased your book : "Excalibur Briefing" and am now reading it.
I also read the messages on your website and think they are very
interesting.

My question is about Art Bell and his long wire antenna and the voltage
he says that he gets off of it. Art (Late night talk show host -now semi-
retired did host the COAST to COAST radio program for many years.)
During one of his radio programs he told of building a long wire radio
antenna as he is an amateur radio operator (Ham radio) and wanted a
1000ft.+ or - long wire antenna. When finished with the antenna ,he was
surprised to find he was getting shocked as there was approx. 400 volts
somehow getting into the wire. He has added resistors to bleed the
voltage to ground but was/ is puzzled as to where the voltage is coming
from. Art lives in Pahrump ,Nevada .(Near Area 51)

Is this a form of FREE ENERGY/ Zero Point Energy? What do you think
of Art's problem?

Thanks for the information Bob. This subject has intrigued me sense Art began discussing it. You would think with enough metal in the air and a fast enough switching network you could extract a decent amount of usable power...
