Unfortunately there seems to be no English information about the A-178
Theremin Control Voltage Source on the Doepfer website. But the German
page provides some nice pictures (and dead links). There's a note in
English: "It's not possible to connect the antenna via an additional
cable to the antenna socket. Antenna and hand form a variable capacitor
with a very small capacity in the pico Farad range. The electronics of
the module is puzzled out just for this capacity range. If a cable is
added the capacity range changes totally and the module will no longer
work ! But it's possible to mount the complete module with antenna at
the desired position, e.g. into a small case that holds one or two of
the modules. For this a longer bus cable is required."
