I bought my Astron SS-30M in 2000 and shortly after found the V- tied to chassis, which I removed.

Lifting the ground connection to V- is a very common modification to Astrons and some sources (e.g. http://www.repeater-builder.com/astron/astron-intro-stuff.html ) tell me that Astron has vacillated between grounding V- to cabinet and not grounding and isolating it with 3K ohm resistor over the years.
