A little study on Faraday shielding. I was baffled from previous experiment and wanted to get a better handle on why I was getting such little isolation. I replaced three of the cover plates with a little copper sheet I had around and found I could control the isolation by holding down the copper sheet down. Show below blue-taped together. On top is a monopole driven by my 10 mW HacRF and by the side is a 1/2 W HT with cheesy rubber duckie antenna. With the 1/2 W module I get full quieting and with 10 mW no quieting. So 10 - 12 dB isolation?
More later.
