    I notice now (after my previous posting) that this current cordset is 
inexplicably two-wire.  I do repeat that the cable I bought from him in 
August was in fact three-wire, and is working well on my R-390.  I wrote 
him a quick note to ask about why he decided not to use a grounded cordset 
on this - we'll see what the response is.


  And I certainly agree that the radio oughta be tied firmly to Mother 
Earth - by any means available.
