	Amateur Radio application of Frequency Modulation
		Frequency Modulation (FM) is a system where the amplitude of a carrier wave is held constant while the frequency is varied in sympathy with the voltage of the modulating signal.
		In a strict sense, an FM signal is one where the frequency deviation resulting from a constant amplitude modulating signal is the same for all modulating frequencies, whereas a PM signal is one where the frequency deviation resulting from a constant amplitude modulating signal is proportional to the modulating frequency.
		Apart from the noise triangle benefit, both FM and PM benefit from noise reduction compared to AM because of the angular modulation, and the improvement is 20*log(m) dB where m is the modulation index.

	Fibromyalgia and the Disability Dilemma
		Most FM patients report that chronic pain and fatigue adversely affect the quality of their life and negatively impact their ability to be competitively employed (8-10).
		FM patients may be told that they are "just out of sorts" and should get on with their lives (70).
		Though FM patients do need to "get on with their lives", such flip-advice is not a constructive substitute for management advice based on a careful analysis of each patients dysfunctional profile.

	fm
		.fm is the country-code top-level domain (ccTLD) for the Federated States of Micronesia, a group of islands located in the Pacific Ocean.
		Except for reserved names like.com.fm,.net.fm,.org.fm and others, any person in the world can register a.fm domain for a fee, much of the income from which goes to the government and people of the islands.
		The domain name is popular (and thus economically valuable) due to it being mnemonic for FM radio (other similar ccTLDs are.am,.tv, and.cd).

	Fibromyalgia Treatment and Guaifenesin Information
		Treatment progress is measured both by symptom improvement and by filling in body maps showing the location and size of tender points, spasms, or hard patches felt in the muscles and ligaments.
		Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, tender points, and fatigue, and according to the American College of Rheumatology, fibromyalgia affects 3 to 6 million Americans.
		Response to guaifenesin as reflected by postcoital evaluation was scored as "no improvement" (no motile sperm), "marked improvement" (at least 3 to 5 sperm per high-powered field with good linear progressive motion), or "slight improvement" (some motile sperm but a number or quality of motility inferior to standards set for the "marked improvement" category).

		Furthermore, she had noticed substantial improvement in sore throat, headache, and fatigue symptoms, and was also experiencing improved sleep, only waking on average one time per night.
		With this medical food, a significant improvement was observed in mental functioning (P<.05) as assessed by the SF-36 questionnaire and a significant decrease in TPI (P<.05), as well as a substantial but not statistically significant improvement in grip strength and physical symptoms.

		The role of the GR and mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) in the CRH regulation in the FMS patients remains to be solved.
		Clinical improvement in patient rating of disease severity and in the severity of tenderness upon palpation was most apparent in the subgroup of patients who were receiving both ibuprofen and alprazolam.

	Abstract
		Substantial improvements of tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS) with respect to detection speed and detection limits were obtained by introducing high frequency modulation schemes, but the expected quantum limited performance with optical multipass cells has not been attained yet on a routine basis.
		Further sensitivity improvement by signal averaging is limited by 1/f-noise contributions from turbulence for integration times longer than 30 seconds.
		In this paper the FM technique will be reviewed with emphasis to the work, which has been done in our laboratory and findings from recent investigations, as well as novel approaches will be discussed.

	eMedicine - Fibromyalgia : Article by John Winfield, MD
		FM, as defined by the ACR criteria, is more frequent in females than in males, with a female-to-male ratio of 9:1.
		Rather, patients with FM need their physicians and family to confirm that they are ill and that their symptoms are explained as being organically based rather than psychologically based.
		FM and major depressive disorders are similar with respect to symptomatology, lifetime prevalence of depression, patterns of comorbidity in individual patients, family history, and response to antidepressant medications.

		One FM improvement to the conventional fixed frequency sweep rate is a non-constant sweep rate.
		Although the situation is more difficult to visualize, it is worthwhile to consider the frequency of the amplitude modulation of an ultrasonic system (conventionally a single frequency, e.g., 120 Hz) and apply the non-constant frequency ideas and monotonic sweeping direction to this AM pattern.
		This high cavitation density is a significant factor in the higher percent particle removal rates at higher ultrasonic frequencies.

	Massachusetts CFIDS / FM Association - UPDATE
		Antibiotic trials in CFS and FM have been limited to one month, a duration that is inadequate to properly evaluate the potential of certain antibiotics to have a positive effect on the disease.
		In a sub-population of FM patients this is related to a myofascial trigger point in the pubic insertion of the rectus abdominus muscles and may be helped by a procaine myofascial trigger point injection.
		As an FM researcher, I was gratified to see that the diagnostic term "fibromyalgia" is being used increasingly by pain researchers who often refer to it as a "classical example of central sensitization." As a rheumatologist, I am increasingly impressed that FM is primarily a neurological disorder which presents as a musculoskeletal pain syndrome.

	Fibromyalgia and Exercise
		The two-fold objective of this study was to determine the GH response to acute exercise stressor in female FM patients and to assess the importance of somatostatin tone in the generation of this response.
		Twenty women with FM and 10 healthy female controls, all of whom exercised on a treadmill to their own idea of exhaustion, were monitored for pulse, blood pressure, electrocardiography, oxygen uptake, carbon dioxide output, anaerobic threshold and maximal workload.
		Objective: To determine whether female fibromyalgia (FM) patients exhibit a normal growth hormone (GH) response to an acute exercise stressor, and to assess the importance of somatostatin tone in the generation of this GH response.

	Transmitter range considerations
		Therefore the antenna system is the single most important factor in regard to range obtained.
		ATV operation, unlike 2M FM or HF SSB operation, is not a "plug together and play" business if you want best results.
		The transmitted power is effectively multiplied by the antenna system gain, which is the sum of the line losses and the antenna gain (or loss for many small simple antennas).

	CRS Report: 93-6 - Excise Tax Financing of Federal Trust Funds - NLE
		Indeed, a key factor in establishing a program supported by dedicated excises is likely to be the ability to identify a product that can be taxed on an administratively reasonable basis and with public acceptance of the reasonableness of singling out that specific product for taxation.
		In contrast, the trust fund is permitted to finance approximately half of the FM's operations account which includes the air traffic control system, as well as FAA overhead and administration expenses.
		Mathematically, the outcome of the new formula would be equivalent to the prior cap (on operations spending as 50 percent of capital spending) if operating expenditures account for 50 percent of the total FM budget and the trust fund finances 50 percent of operations— the approximate proportions authorized by the Congress for fiscal years 1991-93.

	CND: Hypercoagulation: The CFS/FM Plot Thickens
		The heparin is continued after the antibiotic and transfer factor therapies have stopped to prevent any organisms remaining from starting the hypercoagulation process all over again.
		I won't be taking it as it is far more expensive than artemesia, but if you are one of that small group who did not respond to the heparin/transfer factor/antibiotic/bromelain protocol for hypercoagulation, you might want to look into nattokinase as a work-around to the continuing hypercoagulation.
		For those severely ill with any of the many disorders being found extensively in those with CFS and FM, "fixing" the hypercoagulation may not be a cure-all, but when it works it can improve function and quality of life.
