LifeWave – Exlusive Platinum Sponsor of the 2026 ESTC!

LifeWave — Exclusive Platinum Sponsor of the 2026 Energy Science & Technology Conference

Exclusive Platinum Sponsor

LifeWave is the exclusive platinum sponsor of the 2026 Energy Science & Technology Conference.

This is a meaningful partnership and one I personally couldn’t be more enthusiastic about. Let me tell you why.

About David Schmidt and LifeWave

David Schmidt is one of the most successful businessmen in the wellness industry — but at his core, he’s an inventor. Per LifeWave, his experience in business and product development spans over 30 years and includes 200+ patents.

LifeWave’s technology has a remarkable origin story. David was invited by the U.S. Navy to be part of an elite research team tasked with developing a product to help mini-sub crews stay awake without drugs or stimulants. Through that research, David developed a patch that would increase energy in the body using phototherapy — which became the first LifeWave prototype, the Energy Enhancer.

Here’s how LifeWave describes the technology: your body emits heat, including heat in the infrared spectrum. Their patches are designed to trap that infrared energy when placed on the body, which causes them to reflect it back to stimulate specific points on the skin. LifeWave’s approach draws on both phototherapy and acupressure — acupressure working on the same principle as acupuncture, based on the body’s energy field flowing through “meridians.” It’s a patented, proprietary form of phototherapy, and no drugs or stimulants enter your body.

Per LifeWave, their flagship X39 patch supports improved energy flow, improved exercise performance, improvements in strength and stamina, and overall health and well-being.

At its heart, the Energy Science & Technology Conference is an inventor’s and innovator’s conference — so we deeply appreciate David and LifeWave’s support of what we’re doing here.

A Personal Note From Aaron

I’ve been deeply involved in natural health for over 30 years. I used to own a vitamin and health food store, I’ve worked with many companies in this space, and I’ve personally tested countless products and modalities over the decades.

The LifeWave X39 patches are one of the very few things I’ve stayed with. I’ve used them every single day for the last 5-6 years. I push myself hard — sometimes 18 hours a day, 7 days a week, for weeks at a stretch depending on the projects I’m working on. I need every advantage I can get, and I can tell I get less fatigued when I’m using the X39 patches than when I’m not. That’s the simple reason I keep using them.

I don’t endorse anything lightly, and I don’t keep using something this long unless it’s working.

— Aaron

Pole 26 – A New Terminal on the World’s Largest Tesla-Type Measurement Instrument

In 1919, Marconi completed five high-frequency power plants around the world — including the one at Bolinas, California, on the San Andreas Fault. Driven by Alexanderson alternators and built on principles Tesla had discovered, those stations weren’t using the Hertzian (electromagnetic-radiation) wireless that became “radio” as we know it today. They used something different — longitudinal dielectric induction, what Tesla called rays of induction propagating through the earth itself.

The Bolinas station is gone. The antennas are down. The buildings are derelict.

Out in the Nevada desert, Eric Dollard has been building the modern successor for the last twelve years.

The EPD Long Line at EPD Laboratories’ Tonopah field site is an above-ground Beverage pole-pair receiving antenna — 4,800 feet of it — picking up earth signals. It is the world’s largest publicly known Tesla-type measurement instrument. Eric calls it “a massive scientific instrument” and “a massive analog computer.” It streams live, 24/7.

Listen now: Live earth-signal stream — epdlabs.org/seismic-streaming/


What’s New at Pole 26

The Long Line has two ends, and they listen to two different bands.

The Shack end handles the lower frequencies — VLF and ULF, up to around 20 kHz — and that’s what’s been streaming live online for some time now.

The other end is at Pole 26. Until this week, it was just a termination point with old experimental hardware hanging off it. In the latest field session, Eric and the crew stripped all of that off, ran new conduit and grounds, and installed a proper terminal cabinet at eye level. Pole 26 is now a working field terminal — Eric can connect meters, instruments, and test equipment directly, without making the trip out and up to the Shack.

Pole 26 is dedicated to LF and MF reception, up to around 3,000 kHz, including the maritime mobile band near 500 kHz. That’s the band where Eric has been hearing earthquake precursors and unusual signals for years — including the precursor to the Ridgecrest earthquake, picked up on a modified AM receiver in his car. Steven McGreevy will be doing his own AM broadcast and low-band reception work from this terminal as well.

Two separate ground systems were installed at Pole 26 — a signal ground (connecting to a network of buried ground rods running down the wash) and an electrostatic / lightning ground (with its own dedicated network). They’re not metallically connected. The site has, in Eric’s words, “ground ten times over what you would ever expect in desert terrain like this” — because of the underground water running below the antenna line. Marconi chose Bolinas for the same reason: an underground spring runs beneath that antenna field, and the station was oriented along the San Andreas Fault. Geography is part of the instrument.

We caught the whole build on video — Eric walks through the antenna, the two-band setup, the grounding system, and what’s coming next.

Watch the video:

Why This Antenna Is Different

A modern radio antenna radiates Hertzian waves — transverse electromagnetic waves spraying out into space, with energy density dropping off as the square of distance. The energy is lost the moment it leaves the antenna.

What Tesla discovered, and what Marconi built at Bolinas, was different. Tesla’s system used longitudinal dielectric induction — standing waves of energy reciprocating between transmitter and receiver through the earth itself, with the earth acting as a propagation medium, not just a ground reference. The energy didn’t dissipate. It bounced back and forth until something demanded it.

The Long Line at Tonopah is a receiving instrument built on those same principles. The Shack end was already online and streaming. What just got added at Pole 26 is the field terminal that makes the other end of this instrument practical to work with — without trekking to the Shack every time. From here, Eric can experiment with terminations, run instrument measurements, and characterize what the Line is picking up in real time.

Want the deeper background? Watch and read Eric’s recent piece on the engineering lineage:

👉 Tesla–Marconi Wireless System (May 3, 2026)

Essential viewing for understanding what Pole 26 actually is, and why it matters.


What Comes Next

Eric is twelve years into this build, and estimates roughly twelve more before the system is finished as conceived. The next steps from Pole 26: build out a terminal facility at the mine site (where utility power has been arranged), run signals there from both ends of the antenna, and eventually carry them on through open wire, toll-entrance cable, and fiber into town. The full plan was laid out in detail in this latest field session.

Eric will also be talking about all of this — the engineering, the history, and where it’s going — at the upcoming conference.


🎤 ESTC 2026 — Eric Dollard’s Presentations

Eric will be giving two presentations at the Energy Science & Technology Conference 2026:

  • The Alexanderson Aerial — Ernst Alexanderson’s wireless transmission system and Eric’s research building on it. Don’t miss it.
  • Gangrene Energy — Eric’s framing for the dirty electricity loose in our utility infrastructure — millions of volt-amperes of it bleeding into the ground at any given moment. What it does to the electromagnetic environment, what it means for measurement and reception, and why it’s getting worse.

Streaming tickets are available for those who can’t attend in person.

In Memory of Steve Hilsz — Director of EPD Laboratories, Inc. (1945–2026)

Steve Hilsz, Director of EPD Laboratories, Inc., passed away in the early morning hours of March 1, 2026 at the age of 81 at Hospice of the Valley in Surprise, Arizona.

Those who followed the live calls with Eric Dollard knew Steve as the legendary “Glom Meister” — the man behind the famous Glom Locker, an extraordinary collection of vintage surplus parts that made many of the EPD Labs projects possible. Steve spent years working in the surplus industry and had a gift for sourcing the exact components needed — things that simply can’t be found anymore through normal channels. Eric Dollard knew Steve for years, and many of the critical items that made EPD Labs’ work in the electrical sciences a reality came directly from Steve’s expertise and connections.

Steve was born in San Francisco, California on January 20, 1945. After graduating from Galileo High School, he earned an Electronic Technician Aide degree from Heald College. He became a renowned expert and author in the field of antique telephone restoration and wiring, running his own business, VTS Industrial. Before starting his own company, he worked for the local telephone company in Salome, Arizona. He was known among collectors as a “friend of the collector,” specializing in repairing rotary dials and sourcing hard-to-find parts for vintage projects. He was a member of the Antique Telephone Collectors Association and the Telephone Collectors International.

Steve’s passion for restoration extended well beyond telephones and radios. He was equally captivated by naval and industrial history, often working aboard decommissioned warships and destroyers, salvaging precious metals as a hands-on hobby. This rare combination of meticulous detail and bold exploration reflected his lifelong curiosity and love of understanding how things were built. That same curiosity and generosity is what brought him into the world of EPD Laboratories, where his contributions were indispensable.

He married Barbara Cornell on June 7, 1969 in Hornitos, California. They remained married for nearly 57 years.

Steve was an avid reader and loved music. He and Barbara loved going to concerts and going out to dinner. He had a remarkable breadth of knowledge and could strike up a meaningful conversation with anyone. Curious by nature, he never stopped learning and enthusiastically embraced each new wave of technology, all while cherishing his love of antiques.

He is survived by his wife, Barbara Hilsz; his daughter, Lori (Hilsz) Shueman; his grandchildren, Alexander Shueman and Molly Shueman; and his sisters, Carol Crowell and Barbara Warda.

There will be no funeral service. If you’d like to share a memory of Steve, the family has set up a page through Surprise Funeral Care: https://www.dignitymemorial.com/obituaries/surprise-az/steve-hilsz-12769427

Steve’s kindness and generosity touched many lives. He will be deeply missed by the entire EPD Labs and energy science community.

Earth Signals Spectrum Analyzer LIVE ONLINE

The seismic streaming page at EPD Laboratories just got a serious upgrade. Go check it out — it doesn’t look like anything else on the internet.

The EPD-SM1 Seismic Stream Monitor is a custom-built audio player styled after vintage broadcast equipment — complete with a live VU meter showing signal level in real time, and a full signal chain display showing the path from the antenna field through cellular uplink to the Icecast server to your monitor. Hit play and you’re listening to the electrical signals between the ionosphere and the interior of the earth, picked up by an above ground Beverage Antenna at EPD Laboratories in Tonopah, Nevada — 4,800 ft above sea level. Try out the volume slider — it’s fully interactive.

Below it sits the EPD-CR1 Earth Signals Chart Recorder — a real-time scrolling waveform display with adjustable gain (1x, 3x, 5x, 7x). This is a mock recorder for now to show the effect — we’ll be getting into logging the earth signal data and analyzing it with AI and other tools. Coming soon. Play with the gain button and experiment.

There’s also a working spectrum analyzer on the page. You can see the frequencies coming through in real time — the active frequency shows in yellow and the green trace is an RMS average over 60 seconds. Look around the 12-14 kHz range and you’ll notice consistent signals being picked up. Those are the Russian Alpha Navigation System (RSDN-20) broadcasts — a long-range military navigation network operating at approximately 11.905 kHz, 12.649 kHz, and 14.881 kHz.

The pops and clicks are lightning strikes. When those strikes produce pitches — chirps and squeaks — those are responses to lightning creating standing wave situations in the earth. More options are coming — some free and some by subscription.

Special thanks to Hakasays (who will be presenting at ESTC 2026) for streaming the earth signals live. One of his many contributions is that he pays for the cellular data plan to stream it from the shack in Tonopah to the internet. Thank you. And special thanks to Simon Davies of teslascientific.com for help in making the system look better and making the spectrum analyzer more useful.

Three Grounds, Only One Is Real — TCS Transmitter Bench at EPD Labs

Eric Dollard and Connor Fisher walk through the new TCS bench setup at EPD Laboratories in Tonopah, Nevada.

The Ground Problem

The site has three things that we would be tempted to refer to as ground — only one actually is.

The telluric transmission coil transmits through a large water tank buried underground. That tank measures 1 ohm against the power line neutral. Because the coil is actively transmitting through this tank; it is hot — not ground. A second tank is buried nearby to the first, but has an induced current from the first tank resulting from the telluric coil transmission; thus they are electrically coupled making the second tank hot. Also not ground.

The power company’s so called ground is also not legitimate since it is bonded to the high voltage neutral at the main panel. Due to some national dictate most transformer connections are being bypassed; connecting the customer directly to the high voltage neutral on the secondary side of the power line transformer. Driving a couple ground rods at the main panel do not in any way reconcile this issue; they are simply there as a result of misguided electrical codes, and in a sense are “just for show.”

In order to establish an actual ground for the telluric test platform radio equipment; the crew at EPD drove six ground rods spaced 10′ apart. These are all bonded, and terminate inside the lab to an aluminum bus on the back of the TCS workbench. The resistance between the water tank and this station ground measured about 3 to 5 ohms — acceptable.

The TCS Bench

The A.C power coming into the building is run through an isolation transformer in order to seperate our power supply from the high voltage neutral. Either leg of each outlet measures 60V with reference to ground, but compound with eachother to provide a standard 120V A.C connection. This floating ground arrangement is consistent with how the NAVY would typically wire their ships.

A 12-volt DC power supply with twist lock outlets runs the full bench length. We have a battery arrangement with associated charging appartus; along with a separate 12-volt DC power supply which can be run off of the above mentioned A.C system. A 24-volt D.C leg on our twist lock outlets is planned as well for other radio equipment, but is not actively implimented.

Gang Green Energy

In this demonstration, Eric puts the power company’s signal as picked up between their high voltage neutral, and our isolated ground on the oscilloscope. It looks more like a video signal than anything from a power frequency standpoint. It has a repetition rate at the power frequency, but there’s nothing about it that even remotely resembles a sine wave. Very unstable — it can be seen in previous demonstrations that this visual signal morphs and tranforms based on as of yet unkown conditions.

The waveform is more likely 180 cycles per second rather than 60 because of the three phases adding up in the neutral. The distortion is caused in part by rectifiers converting AC to DC. There is not a proper inductance on the line in order to prevent transients from appearing; nor is there implimented synchronous condensors to keep everything in phase based on the inertia of mechanical apparatus. Switching power supplies produce further glitches and RF on the line. This is what happens when you use a Y-connected power system and start hooking inappropriate equipment to the power line.

This is what plays havoc with all audio and radio equipment and permeates the entire electrical system. That’s why so much effort went into the isolated ground system.

Eric points out that every recording studio and radio station he built was wired this same way. Normally if you took the active lead on a phone plug in a guitar amplifier and touched your finger to the tip, you’d blow your speakers out. In the studios he built, all you’d hear would be the buzzing of the gang green energy off in the distance — no damage, no overpowering of the speakers.

Once the TCS system is fully lit up and everything’s hot with RF, restrictions get even tighter on keeping it all stable. This is an ongoing effort; the work of EPD Laboratories is presently reliant on the donations from people like yourself. If you are interested in seeing the continuation of our efforts; please contribute to our work!
