Any rig with aluminum and plastic case can have power supply or RF feedback
problems. I had it one Field Day in spades with a transmatch, (B&W aluminum
case) sitting on top of a high end Yaesu 9xx model, (aluminum case). Moved
them apart, and the RF feedback ceased, it was magnetic field coupling.
To their credit, Ten Tec is using steel cabinets in their high end kits like
the QRP rigs, the Counterpoise tuner, and others like the SWR/Power meter
kit.
