[R-390] Need help fixing R390A not to trip GFI breaker

[Bill Hawkins]

Well, not just any disks, unless you enjoy unexpected fireworks.

Dropping from 0.1 to 0.01 does fix the problem, but you have to
do it with caps rated for across the power line service, with
all its surges.

It appears that one man's reactance is another man's leak . . .

I think that's the solution....I would open it up and replace the caps
with .01mfd disks and put it back together.  Solves one problem and one
potential problem.  No more tripping of the GFCI (used to just call them
GFI's)  and if by chance the caps were leaky they are no more!

Problems solved....
