I can think of one use if the shields/seals are intact. As a prototype RF
"silence" cage for testing noisy or low noise amps and such.


This may be of interest if you are building 13 cm equipment, but since
the seals are usually resonant traps tuned to 2450 MHz, the
attenuation on other frequencies can be quite low.
