[Boatanchors] HT-32

[Rolynn Prechtl]

It should be noted that insulating a transformer or choke from the chassis can be dangerous to anyone subsequently working on the unit because the device becomes a shock hazard if there is a short to the frame.

Duly noted.  However, for a variety of reasons, I don't think it is of
much concern.   If you give it some thought, you will likely agree.

==================================================================================

When insulating a xformer or choke from the chassis for preemptive reasons or because the choke is shorted to the frame, it was standard practice to paint the xformer or choke red as an indication of this action to future users. This was 60 years ago. We are such a kind and gentle society now so this may not fly with some.

I elevate the HV chokes on my KWS-1s with nylon standoffs as a preemptive measure. 

After this discussion I may float some of the iron in my HT-32s also.
