(Just checked one, it does.) Perhaps that would allow some EM leakage? It would not be hard to scrape a bit of paint off and solder or silver solder a ground strap (or foil) bridge between the lid and the body (perhaps on the inside for durability) but I'm not sure if that solves the (potential non?) problem? -Dale/KB1ZKD On Sep 6, 2017, at 14:00 , Walter Underwood <wun...@wunderwood.org> wrote: > A military ammo box should work.
