I wonder if we could easily achieve a temporary change by using foil over the end. ?The shape would be somewhat irregular. ?
Right now, I have too many jobs lined up and have been fighting various bouts with either a severe cold or some other sort of malady.
Feel free to go ahead if I don¡¯t. ?The fact that it¡¯s being reported that the problem is worse at one end of the dial suggests a defect in shielding.
If I can achieve the same result without making holes in the chassis, I will always choose the non-surgical option.

I wondered the same thing, but then I read a bit about the impact of the shape of the shielding on the effectiveness.? Apparently sharp corners are bad.? A cylindrical shape with the end sealed off was much better.? No idea how much the shielding is degraded by the sharp corners of a box structure.??
