Hi Ernst I keep the tank external too - lets me play the spring itself too but it doesn't always cut the hum. At least you can move it around and make it better. I keep meaning to install some RCA sockets to a small panel but it's OK for now. One word of caution - as Dieter has mentioned, be careful about powering up with the tank unplugged and the leads just floating as this may be catastrophic for the module if the leads short.
