....and what about AGC 'chicks'?

"C. Act as a reality check to gobby pilots, and crow like direct entry officer pilots, are the font of all knowledge aviation wise, and are generally good eggs, the most adaptable and have no dramas running from the six radios in the CP to the bowser, refueling the mighty Lynx (twinturbo shaft love machine), tiger tokening the pilots, throwing more ITOW or FITOW missiles on, stealing the gunner's pies and ripping him to death, then acting as a ground handling party while avoiding spilling stupid AGC chicks brains all over the HLS, then sprinting back to the CP for brews and banjos. Busy chaps indeed!"


the above paragraph is a pisstake of BOBBY and MICHAEL CLAYTON by the british army...go figure.

AGC radio controls....

"The signal to be gain controlled (the detector output in a radio) goes to a diode & capacitor, which produce a peak-following DC voltage. This is fed to the RF gain blocks to alter their bias, thus altering their gain. Traditionally all the gain-controlled stages came before the signal detection, but it is also possible to improve gain control by adding a gain-controlled stage after signal detection."

"As is the case with many concepts found in engineering, automatic gain control is also found in biological systems, especially sensory systems. For example, in the vertebrate visual system, calcium dynamics in the retinal photoreceptors adjust gain to suit light levels. Further on in the visual system, cells in V1 are thought to mutually inhibit, causing normalization of responses to contrast, a form of automatic gain control. Similarly, in the auditory system, the olivocochlear efferent neurons are part of a bio-mechanical gain control loop"

and you wonder why so many MKULTRA slaves around Clacton...now have to wear 'dark glasses'? oh and see previous notes upon the 'theremin chip' and what it does to the 'inner ear' in relation to balance...see previous notes upon Sonia fisher having to take 'motion sickness' tablets....

 "More recently, several researchers have observed a suppression of cochlear neural output during stimulation of the inferior colliculus (IC) in the midbrain, which projects to the superior olivary complex (SOC) (Rajan, 1990; Mulders and Robertson, 2000; Ota et al., 2004; Zhang and Dolan, 2006). Ota et al. (2004) also showed that the N1 suppression in the cochlea was greatest at the frequency corresponding to the frequency placement of the electrode in the IC, providing further evidence for tonotopic organisation of the efferent pathways."

the COCHLEAR...go figure...
