In this episode we do something a little different. We did our first interview using the Mac software iChat to do the interview remotely.

Louis Parker, the person interviewed in this podcast, is a member of the LearningMeasure.com consultant network, and is owner of Test & Measurement Consulting, LLC.

Louis has 20+ years in RF/Wireless with an emphasis on designing and testing short range wireless devices (RFID, Bluetooth, WiFi), RADAR and SATCOM transceivers. 6 years training engineers and account managers on RF technology and measurement (metrology) fundamentals as well as presentation, public speaking and sales skills.

This podcast has three sections, first a short interview with Louis, followed by a technical talk on the real behavior of circuit elements often thought as ideal, and finally some elaboration on the subject of oscilloscope probing.

If you would like to utilize Louis Parker’s services as a consultant or for training, contact him through his website, or you can contact us here at learningmeasure.com and we will forward your request.
If you want to join our consultant network, register as a student, and then fill out a consultant profile. If you want to be on the podcast, email me at vendors@learningmeasure.tv.

This is an episode about gravity waves and the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory or LIGO experiment. This was something requested by one of you, and here it is! I am also trying to get someone on the podcast who has something to do with this experiment in a future episode. So if you want me to cover some topic, let me know. This topic is a little out of my areas of expertise, but I hope this provides some sort of basic explanation for what is involved.

We also announce a new course CLP101 - Calibration Intervals. This is one of many courses that we plan to add in the Cal Lab Practice section of courses.

We need more feedback! Let us know if there is any topic you would like to see covered in the podcast, let us know. Also if there are any courses in particular you would like to see us to develop to meet your needs, that information would be appreciated.
