I have made an easy near field probe for such observations, it is easy to make! You need a core (ferite or iron) on which sould be winded some copperwire. I have used a amidon FT37-61 core with 8 windings conectet to a BNC this works for frequencies up to 200MHz, but amidon has other cores suitable for handling greater frequencies. The next is you should have some thing for meassuring the Voltage (use a scope or a simple detector). So if you go along the coaxcable with the probe and you see an increased voltage, something would be faulty. :-( regards Josef Vukovic
