Hi neighbor!
Dr. Baum writes beautiful music (and has my fondness for latkes)!

Subject: Re: [TN] NTC - [TN] Pewter as RF screening material
It doesn't even have to be a solid sheet of metal, a grid with openings sized for the lowest frequency you want to block will also work. See
also: the screen keeping all those microwaves in the oven where they belong.
I used to work at a facility called "The Trestle" which was used to test EMP effects on aircraft. The entire test site was completely surrounded by a wire grid, designed to keep the EMP inside and not turn the city of Albuquerque off when the EMP generators fired. I never saw any testing but found a fun article.

Sure you can. Semding you a table with skin depth vs freq and also RF resistivity for some common metals used in PWBs. Notice the considerable differencies. RF designers use to forget this.
Off line.
