When I fired up my Titan, I had a problem with one GFI in my bathroom and 
another in the kitchen. The one in the bathroom actually failed, so I changed 
it out and now it's fine. The one in the kitchen was causing the clock in the 
microwave connected to it to reset. I fixed that one with a 0.01uF from line 
(hot) to the outlet safety ground (green wire).  

Both of these GFI's are within 25 ft of the 80/40 antenna, and the one in the 
bathroom is about 15 below the end of my 20/15/10 dipole, but the wiring to 
them is in grounded EMT conduit.
