Given how easy it seems to reproduce, someone had better explain this effect if it's not what is claimed there...

PS: this looks like anyone could reproduce or refute it in their basement for a few hundred dollars given all the details in the slides. I'm hoping some amateurs step in.

It all seems to suffer from some of the issues the EM Drive saw: the proposed effect is tiny and very, very difficult to tease apart from environmental and system noise. I hope I'm wrong.
