Any one remember the contra-polar electricity article
from Popular Electronics? That one was also dated April 1.

Here's one:

"Cooling of Atmosphere Due to CO2 Emission"

Except I don't think they're April Fooling. Not deliberately, anyway.

1954? At least that's what I'm remembering, though it's been years
since I saw it. Cover picture of an ice cube tray on a "hot plate",
with heavy frost on the tray. But I also have this vague recollection
that the artist had drawn the hot plate with---a glowing-red element!
Maybe that was on purpose to clue the clueless that it was an April
issue.

Other magazines have done similar. The ARRL ham radio magazine,
"QST," used to run an April article. In the old days, I believe that
Larson E. Rapp was commonly the author.

Cheers,
Tom

Yup! See "Audio Frequency Enhancement" for this April.

I almost got bit by one of them once. I had just gotten my novice
license, and an article appeared: "Power a-plenty, for Pennies!",
which showed a transmission line with thick wire, which necked down
to thin wire, and the premise was that when the electrons build up
at the shoulder, the voltage would increase, increasing your ERP
without running illegal power in your final.

They made up some acronym, and called it the LIRPA 1. ;-)
