The little metal cabinet sets can be killers. In the "better" ones, the chassis was supposed to be isolated from the cabinet by grommets, but these may have deteriorated. A lot of the time you've got a live chassis connected to the case. Put one in the kitchen by the sink and reach over to tune the set while you've got your other hand in the dishwater and see what happens. You might want to check that any grommets (if it's got 'em) are OK. Other ways of isolating include using nylon screws to secure the chassis and back. Just depends on how the set was made. A polarized plug could make the hot lead be the switched lead. They are cute but dangerous little suckers, kinda like coral snakes.
