HOWEVER: I very much doubt it is a ground problem. Would not a ground problem produce a hum? Specifically a 60 Hz hum? I know what a 60 Hz hum sounds like and this is nothing at all like that. This is a wailing that varies in frequency and intensity as you move around or as a bird flies overhead. Anyway, all the equipment is plugged into the same circuit. And I did all the wiring in this house myself so I know everything is well grounded. Not only that but I have double the code requirements for grounding - I have two water bonds and four 10 foot copper rods buried 15 feet apart outside. You can sit by an outlet in my house and watch the stray electrons in the air being sucked into the ground holes. OK, maybe not. Wait, electrons flow the other way, don't they. Oh well. I find it difficult to believe that it has anything to do with grounding. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
