All,

I have an electrician coming on Wednesday to correct a faulty circuit in my home office and install individual 110 and 220 v. circuits for my radios. I will have him look at the lines for the smoke detectors. If the a.c. wiring quality is any indication, I expect that they did a similarly poor job installing the smoke detectors.

Thank you everyone for your advice.

Stan, K4SBZ
