This may be so.
I will only explain that with my AN/URM-25D on, not connected, and about
3feet away from a closed Kenwood R-2000 with nothing connected to the
SO-239, and NO cable on the AN/URM-25D, I was able to pick up carrier
and S-Meter deflection. This was with the output dialed to the minimum
on the Sig Gen.
So the leakage is real. Both were on separate circuits, and both had a
separate ground.
Hence my commentary and my intent.
If I want to begin "sniffing", I have an HP-312A Frequency Selective
Voltmeter.
However, based on the described above observation, I'm going with the
extra RF seal!
