Ron or Chuck..what color did they use for ground or cathode? Really..brown??The colors you mention seem odd now, but they had to start somewhere. Guess I'm just used to the RMA codes... White as the "hot wire"?? Trouble with that is that white doesn't STAY white. Don't mistake a white wire for brown.. Icon_eek ZZZZZT!! The refined and final RMA code makes more sense--thankfully!
