Hallo Gerry.

> I too believe they dont modulate, but when you say:

above is incorrect, what Bob wrote before -
sinA* sinB = sin(A-B) + sin(A+B) is incorrect too,
correct formula - sinA + sinB = 2sin[(A+B)/2]cos[(A-B)/2]

f1=60khz, f2=66khz, a=sin(w1t)+sin(w2t), fourier analysis of a:

when coupling is increased the period is going up so beat frequency is
going down.

sure, but why use capitals? i`m not from some sort of doctors : )
don`t know how, but Terry always beat all of you guys, probably he
uses one of his "secret weapons" again % )

you didn`t understand me - i was trying to say, that secondary gets
new resonance frequency Fupper, and that actual working frequency when
two tanks are coupled and resonating is not higher than Fupper, two
maximum in spectrum is not higher than Fupper too, so you can`t get
voltage maximum below the toroid and overvolt the secondary.

sorry, don`t understand - why doesn`t this envelope cause racing in
the first half of the beat?
