Rife Machine and Frequency Generator Comparison

Function Generators are not Rife machines. They are electronic test equipment and should not be considered Rife machines. Dr. Rife never wanted his name put on any equipment (click here to hear Dr. Rife’s request that his name never be put on any instrument). The use of function generators for what Dr. Rife was doing began in 1957. John Crane and John Marsh took an off-the-shelf function generator and changed the face plate as shown in the photos below.

The comparison chart below first starts with Dr. Rife’s #3 * instrument that was built with the Colin B. Kennedy equipment that he used from 1923 to 1935. The #3 instrument was called the Rife Ray #3.  The second instrument on the chart is Dr. Rife’s 1935 #4 * instrument. It was called the Rife Ray #4. We will not compare Dr. Rife’s first instrument because very little is known about it. His second instrument became his third instrument when he increased its power level from about 10 watts to 50 watts output.  Dr. Rife’s Colin B. Kennedy equipment was just off-the-shelf standard frequency generating equipment of the 1920s. Many frequency or function generators sold today can output the same frequency range that Dr. Rife used but they lack sufficient power. Only about 1/5 of 1 watt (0.20 of 1 watt). Below is a comparison of features of many of the instruments sold today. If you wish to have a greater understanding of Dr. Rife’s instruments we suggest that you read the paper “A History of Rife’s Instruments and Frequencies.” (you get this free when you register on this website) Pages 11 through 27 deal with the Rife Ray #3 Kennedy equipment. Pages 28 through 31 deal with the Rife Ray #4 instrument.

The first pad instrument developed by John Crane and John Marsh worked quite well but were underpowered like most of the pad instruments built today. John Crane and John Marsh tried to overcome the power problem with larger pads. The mistake they made was they didn’t use an RF carrier frequency. Because the off-the-shelf generator they used didn’t have a carrier frequency they no longer used one. Without the RF carrier frequency they couldn’t get the same results as the ray tube instrument. This is the reason the GB-4000 uses a carrier frequency so that the power of a ray tube can be incorporated into a pad type instrument. The power output of the pad instruments on the market today that do not use an RF carrier frequency is only about 0.20 of 1 watt. The GB-4000 with the use of an RF carrier is about 2 watts and is over 9 times more powerful than these instruments. With the use of the optional SR-4 amplifier it is over 50 times more powerful.
