Lucid Dreaming | What does this mean within obe4u statistics / also how to I do the technique while skipping steps

I wanted to know what anyone (or someone) thinks this means in obe4u statistics

For 1-5 attempts (1-3 days) - 50%

For 6-10 attempts (2-7 days) - 80%

For 11-20 attempts (3-14 days) - 90%

It's from a printout I'm currently looking at.

It's from the obe4u website.

Also on the website it says I can skip steps.

Can anyone help me with how to do it while skipping steps?

Thanks.

This Frequency Generator Knows How To Get Down

What kind of clever things could you do with a signal that had a period of 2 hours? Or 20? Any ideas? No seriously, tell us. Because [Joseph Eoff] has come up with a way to produce incredibly low frequency signals that stretch out for hours, and we’d love to figure out what we can do with it.

To be fair, it’s not like [Joseph] has any ideas either. He thought it would be an interesting project, and figures now that he has the technology, maybe some application will come to him. They say that if you’ve got a hammer everything looks like a nail, so maybe the next project he sends our way will be a sinusoidal fish feeder.

[Joseph] says doing the software side of things with Pure Data wasn’t a problem, but getting it out of the computer proved to be tricky. It turns out that your average computer sound card isn’t equipped to handle frequencies down into the millihertz range (big surprise), so they need to be coaxed out with some extra hardware. Using a simple circuit not unlike an AM demodulator, he’s able to extract the low-frequency signal from a 16 kHz carrier.

So if you ever find yourself in need of a handful of hertz, now you’ve got the tool to generate them. At least it’s more practical than how they used to generate low frequency signals back in the 1900s.

Lucid Dreaming | Where did my false awakenings go?!?!?

It was working so well, setting my alarm to go off for ten seconds every 90 min during the night. I would have several FAs, but now I’m having no FAs at all. I tried different alarms, different times, different volumes, and different areas of my room. I still do regular reality checks and write in my dream journal. Is my brain just unfazed by it now?

Note: I use FAs to enter lucid dreams

Lucid Dreaming | Can I use guided audio to WILD?

I'm very sleepy when I wake up to do WILD, can I use a recording to guide me through it when I wake up?

An Arduino As A PLL

At the heart of many amateur radio and other projects lies the VFO, or Variable Frequency Oscillator. Decades ago this would have been a free-running LC tuned circuit, then as technology advanced it was replaced by a digital phase-locked-loop frequency synthesiser and most recently a DDS, or Direct Digital Synthesis chip in which the waveform is produced directly by a DAC. The phase-locked loop (PLL) remains a popular choice due to ICs such as the Si5351 but is rarely constructed from individual chips as it once might have been. [fvfilippetti] has revisited this classic circuit by replacing some of its complexity with an Arduino (Spanish language, Google Translate link).

A PLL is a simple circuit in which one oscillator is locked to another by controlling it with a voltage derived from comparing the phase of the two. Combining a PLL with a set of frequency dividers creates a frequency synthesiser, in which a variable frequency oscillator can be locked to a single frequency crystal with the output frequency set by the division ratios. The classic PLL chip is the CMOS 4046 which would have been combined with a pile of logic chips to make a frequency synthesiser. The Arduino version uses the Arduino’s internal peripherals to take the place of crystal oscillator, dividers, and phase comparator, resulting in an extremely simple physical circuit of little more than an Arduino and a VCO for the 40 metre amateur band. The code can be found on GitLab, should you wish to try for yourself.

It would be interesting to see how good this synthesiser is at maintaining both a steady frequency and minimal phase noise. It’s tempting to think of such things as frequency synthesisers as a done deal, so it’s always welcome to see somebody bringing something new to them. Meanwhile if PLLs are new to you, we have just the introduction for you.

Lucid Dreaming | Wtf happened (possible WILD)

This was the trippiest thing. I must’ve had like, three. The first one I wasn’t entirely aware, cause my phone was different and I didn’t realize it. I was looking at butterflies on pinterest. Suddenly, a bat flew into my ear with a message. It spoke with my dad’s voice and I freaked out and “woke up”.

I might have actually woken up and fell into another dream immediately, cause I remember seeing a lot of dream images before rolling really fast on my side. It was continuous, and I was thinking “Is this how it feels to enter a WILD?” Then I woke up in a different dream, laying dizzily on my kitchen floor, completely aware I was in a dream. I looked outside and realized the whole house was floating in outer space.

Then I woke up again. This time in my room. Pretty sure I was aware of sleep paralysis, cause I found it really difficult to move, was breathing hard, and my heart was pounding. But I didn’t panic, cause I knew I’d experienced it before. So I went back to sleep in a very shallow false awakening.

My mind almost had me fooled; it had created an EXACT replica of my room with dull lighting, and I was staring at that elastic band next to me. I thought I was really awake this time and started to get up. But the way I moved wasn’t entirely natural, so I reality checked. My fingers didn’t go through, but my hand was kinda blotchy and I suddenly felt like something was off. I knew I was dreaming, but I kept trying to force my fingers through, and they just wouldn’t.

Eventually I lost my grip on the dream and woke up for the last time. I think I made the “frustration” mistake again. (One time I got so frustrated in a lucid, I woke up).

Did I have a WILD at some point? I’ve never had one before.
