    The John Westlake/Lakewest MDAC/FDAC, VFET and Detox

    But that is what he had. Around 2016 or so some lines to that effect were written by JW: concept board ready, proven, had personally listened to it etc. pp. Was going to be produced soon and delivered to first testers before christmas... So nothing new really that there are some problems with...

    You must be joking, aren't you? Time frame has slipped? How on earth could that have happened? Never would have imagined something like that, after all the chrometer-like timing before. No, even atomic clock accuracy in this case.

    So let's hope she's still his wife when in 10 yrs or so that data will be necessary and also hasn't lost it.

    As everybody knows, the purpose of a DAC is to convert 0s and 1s to an analog signal. So we should be glad that John has managed to solve the first part in the last 9 years already! There are only the 1s which still pose some difficulties...

    I tried several meanings here https://acronyms.thefreedictionary.com/FA but did not find anything that seems to really fit?

    ad infinitum... So an empty box with chassis for Munich, but without actual DAC board is the most complex part, the actual DAC board is then "relatively quick" (in relation to 9 years)! It seems we ordered manufacturing a pair of shoes, and now after we have waited 9 years for the deciding...

    What christmas you are talking about? Or should it be a joke? Don't we all know too well what all that means:

    Almost missed that: :rolleyes:

    When the remaining screws arrive (in 6 months or so...) he will write that he has to re-design the all-so-popular "clock section" to fit the screw dimensions...

    Is there a 100 page limit or really nothing for 3 weeks now?

    And even that was an error because cuckoo clocks come from the black forest, no way Switzerland. So he's not even getting those. Edit: seems that idea stems from a wrong statement in Orson Welles' Harry Lime in 'The Third Man': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuckoo_clock .

    I think the clock section was 'almost complete' 2014, then began what must be called 'backwards engineering' - with every year the completion diminished... When we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the MDac funding not so far in the future, we might reach the point where there's supposed to be...

    Yeah, must look something like that:

    That would be too easy. I don't now why, but that reminds me: BTW "clock circuitry" is the catch phrase for 8 years now. There have been no 3 or 4 months in the history where he wasn't working on that. Perhaps it's more of a time machine circuitry and it's stuck in an infinite loop.
