	From the published information, and EMI work (including anechoic
	chambers), consider a nonconductor, (glass, ceramic, plastic, loaded
	with carbon (lossy conductor) or ferrite.  Efectivenss will vary with
	thickness, wavelength of threat.  For a fixed threat frequency (police
	radar) a fixed thickness should do.  IF the elements providing the
	return ar properly identified and suppressed.

	Thanks.  I can think of some questions to ask but....
