I agree with the gentleman's thought of a GFIC being tripped or influenced somehow with RF. RF does strange things and if you're not an old hand at it, it can be very confusing - even with experience, it can create some confusion! Move the antenna to another spot in the room or house away from outlets, etc. While you may not hit the same repeaters, you can at least eliminate the RF as the problem of the buzzing at that outlet. On the other hand, it is possible too, that if the GFIC wasn't bad to start with, an RF Overload "could" have created a problem - depending on the make up on that particular unit. They're not that expensive to replace, if you know how to do one. While I don't think it a high probability of the RF doing damage to it, I wouldn't dismiss the thought completely. I've seen and I'm sure others have as well, things in our electronics dealings which go beyond theory and explanation at times. It is never good to "assume" anything when dealing with the unknown. Eliminate all possibilities until the situation is cured. NS Agreed - so isnt the simplest, least most blatantly obvious thing to do is physically examine the offending object. Andrew VK3BFA |
