Hi Curt,

I wonder if it might be more cost effective to simply construct a "shield room" 
from 2x4 boards and hardware cloth (you know, that metal mesh with 1/4'inch 
grid)? If you need filtered line voltage, it would be a lot easier to mount a 
filter on the hardware cloth than onto shielded fabric. I once tested the 
shielding effectiveness of one of those tents by comparing the ambient signals 
inside versus outside the tent with a portable spec-an and it was OK, but not 
great. We determined there was a lot of leakage due to the line filter not 
contacting the fabric well enough.

Cheers, Ken
