[Premium-Rx] Faraday Shield.....To Be, or Not to Be?? Need advice, please!

[RAF Wireless Engineering]

A Faraday cage/room is made to measure pure noise figure of 
devices under test, like amplifiers & the spurious emissions of 
receivers. Once you connect an outside antenna to anything inside 
that room, the purpose is defeated.

It will burn your money & not serve the purpose you intend.

Yeah, I thought about that, but then figured the room would only serve 
to keep RFI *IN* that the digital radios and other equipment like 
computers would generate.
