Shocked by my Predicta!
I was watching my Predicta Holiday the other night, and everything's working fine, so I reach for something sitting just behind the set, my forearm touched the metal swingarm on the right hand side, and I felt a shock! It seems as if the outside of the metal support/swingarm is charged with AC voltage, by the strength of the shock (like a jerk I tried it a couple times to make sure it wasn't just a static charge) I'd guesstimate it at around 30V (about double a Lionel train transformer).
Any ideas as to what could be causing it or how to fix? The TV's operation is about as perfect as a Predicta can get.
