Without a grounding wire I don't see how this helps. I have the two
prong power brick.
I'll hook it up to an oscilloscope tomorrow morning, see what it says.
There is a grounded outlet at one of the test stands.
The reason I said shocks was because it was a bit more painful that
I've ever felt. I know it's been discussed, and even remember older
postings, but never put much thought into myself being grounded. I
*think* that'd be the only way to complete the Ti->person circuit.
Thanks, will report...
