Members has-sound Posted June 1, 2006 Members Share Posted June 1, 2006 Copper is a much more efficient shielding medium than aluminum. If you could go all copper tape it would probably be better... -Stan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members arashi Posted June 2, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 2, 2006 Thanks for the pic! Now, if I were going to the hardware store to get some wires to use as ground wires, what would I ask for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
