                                 by Walt Rosenthal

       Abstract

       The Vacuum Triode Amplifier (VTA) invented by Floyd Sweet consists
       of two ferrite magnets and two to four coreless wire coils. It is
       self powered in the pre-ferred configuration and produces in excess
       of one KW of 120 VRMS 60 HZ power in the form of energy that
       resembles electricity.  This energy is referred to as negative
       energy.      The  VTA  development  history,  its  anti-gravity
       characteristics,  negative  energy  properties,  and  some  of  the
       personalities involved are discussed.

       This is a story of Floyd Sweet's trials and tribulations involving a
       mystery wrapped in an enigma.  God revealed to Floyd sufficient
       information to build a machine to provide energy that resembles
       electricity.    However,  God  did  not  provide  solutions  to  the
       frustrating string of problems that would surface in converting the
       idea into a working device. There are several people in this story
       that have provided help and some who have hindered.

       When Tom Bearden met Floyd, the device Floyd had developed was
       producing a few watts of alternating current at 28 volts. Tom saw in
       Floyd's device the physical embodiment of a principle he had


                                      Page 1





       theorized many years before.  Tom had never designed or constructed
       a physical device to access this elusive energy source.

       Tom's name for the extraction process is 'Four Wave Phase Conjugate
       Mixing'. The energy source is the intense non-cohered energy that is
       thought  to  be  present  everywhere  in  the  universe.   Various
       researchers through the years have given this energy different
       names, such as "Zero Point Energy", "Gravity Field Energy", "Radiant
       Energy", and others.

       Tom Bearden gave Floyd's device the name "Vacuum Triode Amplifier"
       or VTA. The machine provides a small amount of its output fed back
       to the equivalent of a grid which gates or coheres a large amount of
       energy which appears at the device output terminal as something that
       resembles electricity!  Negative Electricity.

       This  energy  can  be  utilized  by  devices  designed  to convert
       electricity to light, heat, or mechanical work or anything else for
       which normal electricity is used.  The properties of this energy,
       although superficially resembling the 120 VRMS 60 HZ power we
       normally  use,  are  unique  and  sufficiently  different  from
       conventional electricity, so that it should be classified as an
       entirely new energy form.  It will require careful extended study by
       a wide range of people in order to document its properties in the
       manner scientists have done with conventional electricity.

       Tom Bearden refers to this energy as negative energy, and he states
       that negative time must be utilized.  In  negative time according to
       Bearden, gravity is a repulsive force.

       Floyd's  experiments  demonstrated  that  the  VTA  loses  weight in
       proportion to the amount of generated "Negative Energy".  This was
       carefully documented by Floyd on a kitchen scale.   The machine
       weight was observed decreasing with increased load in a quite
       orderly fashion until a point was suddenly reached when Floyd heard
       an immense sound, as if he were at the center of a giant whirlwind
       but without actual air movement.  The sound was heard by his wife
       Rose in another room of their apartment and was heard by others
       outside the apartment. The experience was very frightening and the
       experiment has not been repeated.

       Some observers of the light emanating from ordinary 120 volt 100
       watt incandescent bulbs powered by the VTA claim the light is
       different, softer, than normal incandescent light.

       The VTA magnets and coils when powering loads of over a kilowatt
       become cold and temperatures of 20 degrees Fahrenheit below ambient
       have been observed.  Similar reports of below ambient temperature of
       energy machine components have been reported by other inventors,
       such as John Bedini and John R.R. Searl.

       When the VTA output wires had been accidentally shortened, first an
       extremely brilliant flash occurred.  When the wires involved were
       examined shortly afterward, they were found covered with frost.

       Unfortunately this also caused the VTA magnet to fracture and the
       machine ceased operating.  In one instance the machine operation
       ceased during a local earthquake. The physical shaking was not
       believed to be sufficiently severe to disrupt the machine

                                      Page 2





       magnet/coil relative placement or physical shock to the magnet such
       as a hammer blow might impart. The best speculation is that the
       machine was affected by the intense electromagnetic pulse known to
       originate from earthquakes.

       Conventional instruments used to measure volts, amps, or watts
       appear to correlate machine output as coupled to loads, but only up
       to approximately 1 KW; above that value they may indicate zero or
       some other value not related to the known actual load.

       Floyd's attempts to use conventional electrical design formulas
       relating number of coil turns, amp turns on drive coils, and any
       other parameter to predict observed outputs have all resulted in
       failures with calculations.  Empirical formulas based on actual
       tests have been documented.

       Observation of machine output voltage of approximately 120 VRMS
       while the load was changed in 100 watt increments from 100 watts to
       1000 watts has shown no observable output voltage change,  which
       suggests an extremely low internal equivalent impedance.  The 20
       gauge magnet wire in the output coils consisting of several hundred
       turns has significant DC resistance which is not correlated with the
       unvarying  output  terminal  voltage  at  different  loads.    It is
       speculated that this energy does not travel within the copper wire
       or its passage through the copper wire does not generate a voltage
       drop - a most useful feature when transferring energy from one place
       to another.

       One frustrating aspect of the VTA has been its failures, evidenced
       by the output voltage slowly decaying to zero over a few seconds or
       minutes.  There also has been spontaneous instances of the voltage
       rising above 120 VRMS as observed by the increased lamp load bank
       brightness. The volt meters, ammeter, and power meter did not
       correlate with the brightness change except when the machine would
       the fail to produce any power.

       Many times the VTA was normally left on powering a lamp load bank 24
       hours a day. During a period of time when it appeared to be
       functioning properly all day long, Floyd got up at 3:00 AM to go to
       the bathroom. As he walked past the room where the VTA was located,
       he noticed that the lights appeared dim.  He measured the voltage at
       70 VRMS. Being tired at the moment, he returned to bed.  The next
       morning when he rose, the voltage was back to the normal 120 VRMS
       and stayed there all day.  The next night Floyd got up at 4:30 AM.
       The voltage was measured at 85 VRMS.  Floyd returned to bed.  The
       voltage was normal the entire next day.

       A possible clue to this anomaly has appeared in an article by E.W.
       Silvertooth  title  'Motion  Through  The  Ether'  where Silvertooth
       describes  a  dual  path  laser  interferometer  experiment  that
       conclusively  demonstrated the presence of an ether that flows
       through our portion of the universe at greater than the speed of
       light with its vector in the direction of the constellation Leo.
       Floyd's VTA may be orientation sensitive to this ether velocity
       vector.

       The VTA consists of two 4" X 6" X .5" grade 5 or grade 8 ferrite
       magnets spaced 3 inches apart in the attractive orientation, with
       the output and drive coils in between.  The output coils are wound

                                      Page 3





       with 20 gage magnet wire. Their axis is parallel to the magnetic
       lines of force between the two magnets.  The two drive  (or
       excitation) coil axes are positioned at 90 degrees to the output
       coil axis.  The VTA excitation coils may be driven by the VTA output
       voltage or a separate sinewave oscillator source.

       The  "SECRET" to the machine is the process that "conditions" the
       magnets.  This conditioning process determines the output frequency
       and also prepares the machine for operation.  The same machine could
       be just as well "told" to output 50 HZ or 400 HZ.  The conditioning
       technique is so novel, it is  doubtful anyone would ever guess how
       it is done.

       Oscilloscope observation of the VTA output voltage waveform shows an
       apparently perfect sinewave that is not phase locked to the local 60
       HZ powerline voltage.

       The VTA can be started by momentary connection of a 9 volt battery
       to the drive coils when the machine is operated  in the self-powered
       mode.  The operation is stopped by momentary interruption of power
       to the power coils.

       The VTA "likes" to always see a minimum load of 25 watts.

       Electrical shock to humans from the VTA may be more damaging than
       contact with a 120 VRMS 60 HZ conventional powerline voltage.  Floyd
       has accidentally had VTA current pass from his thumb to his smallest
       finger. It appears to freeze the flesh and was extremely painful for
       at least two weeks.

       The mechanism by which negative energy makes copper conductors cold
       but will also heat light bulb filaments is not understood.

       Tom Bearden has coined the term "Gravito Stiction"  for this process
       and has described how he believes it works.

       On the human side of the VTA development, some incidents are worth
       telling. Two people from Australia, who claimed they wanted to help
       Floyd, stole his note book and promptly asked John Bedini for help
       in replicating the VTA based on the notebook contents.

       John recognized the notebook as belonging to Floyd and promptly
       asked them to leave.  However, the notebook was never recovered.

       Floyd has received many death threats over the phone, and some
       threats face to face.  A well dressed gentleman in a expensive suit,
       tie, hat, and hundred dollar shoes approached Floyd on the sidewalk
       of the street where he lives and introduced himself as Cecil Brown.
       He showed him a picture of Floyd inside his apartment.  Cecil then
       told him that he represented a conglomerate that did not want
       Floyd's device to appear in the world at this time.

       He further stated that sometimes unfortunate things happen to people
       who do not comply with the wishes of others.  He then retrieved the
       picture and departed.  Incidences like this do impart significant
       concern in Floyd's mind!

       One real unsung hero of the human side of this story is Al Margolin,
       who for many years has provided test equipment, fabrication  help,

                                      Page 4





       and transportation for Floyd and Rose whenever needed, and it was
       needed many times.

       Floyd's long time friend and former employer Bill Lawry has provided
       living and project expenses and fabrication help when needed.

       The reliable conditioning of the magnets in a manner that assures
       long time operation is the Achilles heel of this device.

       With the help of enough of the right people this device may change
       our world and open a new field of physics!  This adventure of course
       is an ongoing and the final goal of powering the world with the VTA
       is still a long ways off.

       Vangard Note

          A point of interest regarding the "cold" effects associated with
          this negative electricity.  Walter Russell, Victor Schauberger
          and others contend that nature uses two types of "spin", one
          clockwise, the other counterclockwise.

          The clockwise spin is a concentrating effect which generates Heat
          as a byproduct and is used in all modern power generation and
          utilization.  The counterclockwise spin is an expanding effect
          associated with cold and the attempt of nature to REGAIN the
          UNITY that prevails when force of any type (Aether, magnetic,
          light, electric, gravitic, etc.) IS NOT POLARIZED.

          In fact, the very existence of electricity, magnetism, gravity,
          heat, light, etc. is NOT possible unless the AETHER IS THUS
          POLARIZED  to  create  the  interferences  necessary  to  provide
          potential differences and the "cascading forcefalls" of other
          energies  which  MANIFEST  as  a  DIRECT  BYPRODUCT  of Aether
          interference.

          Two papers which shed some light on this are listed on KeelyNet
          as NEUTRAL1 and RFP1 if you might wish to look into some of our
          correlations.
