ST RFI [RE-wrenches]

[Jeffrey Wolfe, Global Resources]

Joe,

I guess I would first make sure that the ST's are really fully grounded. 
Make sure the screws are in on the covers (they might not really be 
grounded if just snapped in place. Not knowing anything about antennae 
theory, I would think the boxes themselves would be cages. If the wires are 
transmitting it (leaks in the boxes) the Faraday cage will not stop it.

As a second item, I'd put ferrite beads on the AC line out, close to the 
inverter.

Just my untested thoughts.

Jeff
