Extra challenges in radio: it seems the double glazing at home is also quite good at keeping in/out radio signals: I can't even get through to repeater PI2NOS from the home office (1st floor). Reception is ok, but not great as I wrote about before. The double glazing is about 6 years old, so the high efficiency may very well be due to metal film. Transmitting indoors with a PC running playing music does have an interesting effect: I hear an interesting buzzing signal over the speakers. A better antenna will help a lot, even when I still hang it inside the window.
