Getting OT now. The spacing between the conductive of leaded mullions
will be multiple wavelengths at 868 MHz. I don't think that we're in
the 'waveguide at cut off' region. A good test would be the operation
(or otherwise) of a DECT phone.


A GSM mobile phone might give a better idea as they are 800 to 900
ish MHz. DECT is 1.9GHz.

But does the Aldi/Lidle unit work on 868, it could use 433 (or the
other frequency down there, I can never remember which was
depreciated a while back).
