Hi Martin
?
Good to hear from you and thanks for the reply. I agree about the shielding from the DC converter and if I had the skills I may possibly try to attempt it myself. Another alternative is to look out for another used one at a very good price to experiment with modifying, keeping this one intact. I have to say my expectations were very low and I was expecting it just to be awfully noisy and pretty much unusable but I have been pleasantly surprised. Interesting about the tuned loop story. With so much RFI around I would have thought that was a bad decision on their behalf. I thought us radio enthusiasts loved nothing better than a bit of tinkering with electronic equipment! Although my friend at the radio club jokedthat we don't call it "tinkering" we call it "technical assessment"!!
