Hi, Warren.

I was going to suggest that 1/10 wavelength grid spacing at the highest 
frequency you want to shield would be sufficient, but I found this 
reference that recommends 1/20 wavelength.

By the way, I didn't make it to the post office in time yesterday, so 
the disk I promised you won't go out until Monday.  Sorry ...
