Hello Folks,

So far I've got no responses from the usual places and chances are they
can't accommodate us this time. We want to do conducted susceptibility
measurements on electronics for a truck. Since the cables will likely
radiate off the stuff that's injected into them this would have to be
done in a somewhat shielded environment. Doesn't need the foam
dispersers and stuff but at least a good tight shield.

The problem: This is a full size tractor-trailer kind of truck. Full
length with sleeper cab. Dismantling the exhaust stacks won't help much
since the cab is almost that high itself. IOW it's "da big machine".
Sans trailer though.

Any ideas? Ideally a lab that has the big amps and stuff so we don't
have to rent. But either way is fine. Locations around Fremont, CA or at
least Bay Area surroundings would be great. These things often yield
only 5mpg or less on Diesel ...

Can you do this outdoors, perhaps at an FCC Quiet Zone (or equiv.) and
correct from there?
Not sure if there are any out your way though.

I do hear Boeing has a screen room big enough for a jumbo jet.

Or course, that's probably up near Seattle, so at $4.75 a gallon for
diesel....


It's >5 by now :-(

We've got some mil places around here but they won't let civilians in. Nevada would be an option but we'd be in 110F and in the scorching sun all day. Plus with some luck you return to the generator to change a setting and a rattler has curled up on it.
