Followed the Leak exactly. The only thing that was shared was the double
wall socket (tuner took its power from the amplifier). I briefly tried
a ribbon aerial on the Leak tuner and I believe it was exactly the same
- it was only a quick go and I was busy!




I'd not use the Leak tuner until you find out what's happening. If you
connect it to your main antenna and it *is* radiating, it's possible
you could affect reception of anyone in front of your antenna for
quite a distance.



Yes, I immediately thought that it must be some sort of intereference
and thought no more of it.



Not looked at your pic to check. However if the 'Leak' is something like a
Troughline, the one I have leaks IF and its harmonics, and various mixer
products like a sieve! It appears all over the mains and output cabling.



It is the 'Stereofetic' tuner and 'Leak' is looking like a particularly
*apt* name for it...!! ;-)
