Hi all,
Finally got my 38S in a case today. Got tired of waiting for the one I
ordered so did a quick run to the supply house and got a nice steel box.
Found that the board (or antenna connector) must be isolated from the case
to maintain stability/cleanliness of the tx sig. If both the board and ant
connector are directly connected to the case - yucky sig - won't tune up
properly! Isolated the board as that was easier to do with plastic
standoffs rather than mess with the ant connector. Don't recall reading
this anywhere, did I miss something somewhere? BTW, first contact with rig
in box was LU5VC! 73 and cu on 30.
