Very nice work, thanks for posting the photo!

And thanks for the results on experimenting with different values of resistance. I suspect that everyone's setup is slightly different, and folks will find the best results with slightly different values of resistance.

TI-Shield is a clad metal product of Engineered Materials Solutions, which was a part of Texas Instruments for a few years. It is designed to be a more effective shield against electromagnetic radiation than steel alone or copper alone. Its structure, though, gives it the property of concentrating local magnetic fields and supporting eddy currents in the copper layers. This allows it to dissipate energy from RF ringing.

You could experiment with attaching a layer of it to the underside of the lid of your enclosure. It should be grounded to the enclosure, and also damped against mechanical vibration. Since Microsorb is no longer available, a piece of Dynamat X-treme or Deflex rubber would work. Be sure to ground the aluminum layer of the Dynamat X-treme if you use it.
