There is a hint in the Hot Rodding Article about putting a piece of Tin Foil under the pitch
antenna lead. Anyone know the size and approximate location for this. I haven't seen it
documented anywhere.
Also there is conflicting info on whether or not to ground the coil shields. The may add
capacitance or pick up noise?
Many of the earlier Theremins used metal chassis and AC transformers in their construction.
I have an audio transformer that is shielded I wonder if it would cause problems? I had planned
on using a metal chassis mainly to keep out interference but if one side is tied to the AC ground
it is effectively 1/2 of the AC line and thus might not do much shielding. I understand it could add
capacitance and mess up the Oscillators but maybe if it is 1" from the board there is not much influence?
Anyone have experience in these matters who would like to comment?
