[R-390] GFCI issues

Why not replace the GFCI that seems to be acting up?  That would be slightly
safer than tweaking connectors in the breaker box.

I am going to add MORE testing information.

I took BOTH hair Dryers out on the front step.  The circuit there is the
"other" GFCI one in the house.

The Hair Dryers work WITHOUT tripping the GFCI.

I think I'm losing my mind!!!!!!!!!!!

The next step is to open the breaker panel and start tightening connectors!

It is more weird than I thought.

These are two prong devices.  They have a GFCI as part of their own plug.

If I use them in a non GFCI protected, they work - AND - do NOT trip their
OWN GFCI.

That's why I asked this group and another.
