Hmmm...funny you should mention that: for some time, the GFCI at our basement
washing
machine would trip off every time I was on 40 meters, but I got that fixed.
Just a day or two ago, I discovered another, seldom-used, GFCI which is toast.
I suppose I
wiped that one out some time ago.
Thanks for the info.
