Hi Ernst

I keep the tank external too - lets me play the spring itself too but
it doesn't always cut the hum. At least you can move it around and
make it better. I keep meaning to install some RCA sockets to a small
panel but it's OK for now.

One word of caution - as Dieter has mentioned, be careful about
powering up with the tank unplugged and the leads just floating as
this may be catastrophic for the module if the leads short.
