    Hello, Did you already take the circuit apart? Perhaps the capacitor C28 has a to small value and only high frequency signals are amplified. Raise the value of C28 to 10 μF and see what happens. Bertus

    Should a line tester light up when inserted into grounding socket?

    Hello, Wich line tester do you use? I would say that there should be no power on the ground connection. The ground connection is there for safety. Read the book in the link: www-d0.fnal.gov/~hance/doe_esh.pdf Bertus
