I admit I didn't spend any time studying it and my time estimate might be wrong. It might only take me fifty hours to figure it out, research what they are talking about, round up the parts, build it, figure out how to tune it. And I said other people that know electronics will "most likely have a much different opinion". I don't see anywhere that you hook up a voltmeter to it to adjust it to resonance. It says it is all mental, psychic and some people are more sensitive than others. And I didn't even see anywhere it can be used to locate things, but I know enough about locating that it appears to be able to be used for that--all you need is some L-rods and walk around it like an MFD transmitter. That's how I would use it. But then again I said I can't understand much of what Cayce is talking about. Well, don't let me stop you. "Even a child can build it."
