On pages 11-13 of Chapter 13A (under the headings "Metal boxes shield each circuit block," and "Shielded modules and shielded cable interconnects"), K0IYE shows himself to be a true wizard and a real master of electromagnetic physics. Stray RF and out-of-control capacitive coupling stand no chance with him. A man after my own heart.

I'm intrigued by the stack of band modules he has binned up on the back shelf. They must be plugins. No multi-wafer rotaries or relays for K0IYE! It's so different from the current mentality (admittedly my own as well) that wants everything in a single enclosure, and preferably as small as possible.
