I did the same thing, very simple and practical tool. Though I would recommend covering it in something nonconductive (tape, epoxy) because otherwise you'll short something out while moving over the board you are testing. Nearly happened to me :)
If you clamp the saw in a bench vice with teeth facing upwards, you can hold the wire in both hands and draw it along the blade to make the cut. Much finer control over the cut that way...
How about using your wire strippers to cut a notch around the braid, then pull back the braid to make the gap. Then cut off the excess braid from the end.

A small hobby style tubing cutter would also work for making those cuts.
I think Japanese saws are pull saws because they like the precision of thin kerf cuts.
That is some tough braid. It's silvered copper?
Japanese saws are pull because they are to be used while sitting on the floor.

Cool, need to make these.

Hey the preamp?
search ebay for : 2Ghz RF Wideband Signal Amplifier 30dB low-noise LNA Broadband 0.1MHz-2000MHz
I think a needle file can do the slot making better.
911 subscriptions. got to be 1st of april!
Typo in the title *Field
oops... thanks
So, why does the E field probe can`t work? It`s the making approach incorrect? Or just because the board which was detected don`t have a E field.
