Hello All

All my equipment Radio, PC, Relaycard, etc on remote qth will be moved to
an small shed about 10 meter closer to TX Antenna than what is used today.
I want to shield the small shed where all equipment will be installed and wondering if i can use chicken wire. The experience when i build up this remote station is that Radio and computer have to be total "RF dead". IF not all kind of "nice" things hapend :-)
Should i insted of using chiken wire use metal sheet/tin plate.
>From my own knowledge 10-15 mm holes in the chicken wire should not have to mutch leakage on HF band but maybe on some GHZ range it would not be good enough.
So any sugestion ??
