  Here is today's Ham Shack Safety Tip:

  Be sure that all power is OFF, and all circuits are SUFFICIENTLY
  DISCHARGED, before working on them. Do NOT have anything metal on,
  such as jewelry, belts, etc., that could complete an electrical
  circuit through you. If you don't know what you're doing, send it
  to a ham radio dealer for servicing. The cost incurred for repair
  is not worth paying with the price of your life!! As little as 1
  amp (1000 milliamps) of electricity, if even that, can be fatal!!

  With some of the gear nowadays, it's cheaper to throw it in the
  trash, if it quits working, and buy a replacement rig...rather
  than send it off for repairs.
