Thanks rfeenstra and John. You have confirmed what I was thinking myself. I'm not sure why the guy on ARF said what he did. Maybe there was some problem with his house wiring, reversed plug would be my guess. Had it been me, after reading the manual, that would have been the first thing I checked, before I did any mods to the circuitry, heck, even before I plugged the d&mn thing in !. It does say, in the manual, to check the wiring of the circuit to make sure that the UNGROUNDED line goes to pin #1. LOL ! Maybe some people just look at schematics and don't bother to thoroughly read the manual. I learned LONG AGO to read the instructions before I did anything else.
