He isn't getting vibration, he said it does not work at all, it does not
couple back emf anywhere (it's not stupid, it's a Miller integrator which
makes the capacitor appear beta times larger exactly when it matters for
noise (during the transition)(but without the leakage, bulk and price of a
100uF filter cap), and *I* said put it between C and B, not you. Please
check your facts before contra-posting. You can also build the circuit and
see for yourself.
