Clearance, custody and circuit loading
January 25–27: three practical trials make the limits of a check more concrete.
Three trials
A path around the clamp records clearance with a visibly flexible mock-up. A checkpoint leaves the computer records the first acknowledged paper handoff. How much circuit does the meter add? records divider checks and a timed conventional RC repeat.
The work advances from drawings and procedures to limited performed trials. The accompanying computations are controls and conditional calculations, not substitutes for those observations.
Next decisions
The reference needs a rigid candidate and quantitative checks. Lumen needs an unavailable-custodian exercise and an explicit replacement rule. Aletheia needs component characterization and known acquisition latency.
Loading and reference acceptance remain withheld. No amplifier, participant, implant or lunar service is established. The latest Fieldnotes manuscript is in preparation; the two illustrated issues remain the released editions.
