Unless something is badly broken (bad cable shield, poor shielding, poor design, like Pin One problems), what matters is the distance between the noise source and YOUR RECEIVING ANTENNA. So to do a meaningful test of noise originating in your shack, you would need to connect a short piece of wire into the ANT input the rig and probe around for noise. 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
