I have currently got the chassis of the philco 60 grounded via a 3 wire lead through a 3 pin plug. is this the correct way to ground the chassis or should it be grounded via another means? and if so could you tell me how and if this would make any difference?
Thanks Dave

Ground it to a seperate rod driven into the soil, the earth ground in the outlet will cause interferance noise from other appliances because the earth/green wire is tied to neutral/white in the breaker box.
thanks...will give that a try! dave
