P.S. Extra bonus question, any way to just figure what the old ones
had for a filter?

Karl

I'm not sure why a filter would be required- looks like you could
reduce the sensitivity using shielded wire and maybe a single turn
around the ignition wire. No?

I'm going to play more with this idea. the vendor had me cut the lead
down to one inch and use just a hook, no joy. I think I'll try to
increase the distance by wrapping a gob of elctrical tape around the
plug wire.

I assume you're thinking AL foil. Which wire would you wrap, plug wire
or unit pickup lead, and should it be grounded?

Karl

Is the pickup wire shielded now? Shield grounded?

yes and yes, all but the last one inch. The tech. had me cut it down
in an effort to correct the problem.

The guy at Tiny Tach is GREAT. He's making me two custom tachs with
filters. So, I'm good for five more years. I'll worry about it then.
or, with luck, I'll be retired and fishing full time.
