Methinks these are yours:

Any more that I missed?
Yes, they are mine in this country but I am talking about
2008 when I applied for the subject antenna

Well, the only application I could find with 655,899 in it is a seat
belt buckle. *I thought I was being helpful by reminding you of some
of the numbers. *Numbers are always a nice thing to have. *Do try to
recall your application number so I can look it up.
You are different, you are polite
Yes I will supply the patent request number and the subject is well
discussed on this group.
The bottom line is that the PTO does not recognize the term
equilibrium the same as most of this group. From my education a theory
is only that until it satisfies the laws of Newton
and Maxwell. The boundary laws are such that with classical physics
all laws deal with the Cosmos as a whole where balance or equilibrium
reins supreme. There is no law in existence that is accepted without
conforming to boundary laws which goes back to Newtonian laws. Now
equilibrium and boundary rules do not occupy the curriculum in the
U.S. I cannot explain why but this group and the PTO subscribe to the
idea that equilibrium has no position in this Universe, that I have to
accept even tho commercial computer programs based on Maxwell provide
confirmation of my findings. I can move on,no sweat







As for your difficulties with the USPTO, I have no idea what you're
talking about. *If you need help obtaining a patent, the very last
place I would ask is the military. *All their patents tend to become
classified, even if they're trivial. *Unless your patent has some
obvious military significance, such as a plasma antenna, don't bother
with the military. *If you go to NASA, they'll want the rights to sell
licenses for the technology:

It's not terribly difficult to get a patent on your own:
http://www.uspto.gov/web/patents/howtopat.htm
http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/article-29493.html
http://www.ehow.com/how_4441109_get-patent.html
and the usual YouTube videos:
http://video.google.com/videosearch?hl=en&source=hp&q=how+to+get+a+pa...
in 20 parts at about 9 min each.

There's even fill in the blank software to make the necessary
documentation and drawings easier:

If you can't get patent protection, you can manufacture your antenna
and protect the technology as a trade secret. *However, that's very
difficult with antennas, as they're easily reverse engineered and
analyzed.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trade_secret
Hmmmm.... are you planning to manufacture and sell your antenna?


The PTO is losing examiners faster than it can replace them and this
is showing.
I want ham radio to serve those who are not equipted to join the
group. If I apply for a patent and thus reveal my findings and the
patent office does its thing then amateurs will gain by it but the
wolves are then able to take all. On this group there is denial of a
better way which is an obsticle all patent owners have to face so it
is better for me to stay silent and wait for a better environment to
provide my antennas. I have antennas that are way smaller than present
even a directive rotatable top band antenna and I am content as are
others I have shared with. While equilibrium in physics are disparaged
in the U.S. sciences
then I must be content with what I have! And I am as others are in the
denial of its possible existance.

Art
