 I don't know about the EICO, but most of the "kit" type signal 
 generators have the same problem.  Lots of the leakage is through the 
 AC line cord. 
 
Hi Ed, 
Thanks for the response.  I did originally suspect  the line cord and added some 
filtering but no change. 
Interestingly, I have run some tests and most of the RF seems to be spraying off an area 
of the aluminum front panel behind which is the frequency setting variable capacitor. 
Also, I get some very intriguing nulls in the leakage around the disk screwed to the cap 
shaft that has 0-100 calibration markings as a logging scale.  I'm suspecting it is acting 
as some sort of Faraday screen.......but maybe I've been chasing this problem too long. 
Hi hi!
