Hi All,

I'm going to take one more chance to see if someone in Europe can answer a
question for me.  I have modified my Samlex power supply to accept 220 VAC
mains input and am bringing my TS-480 station along to operate from Sweden.
What I want to know is how to connect it to AC lines in continental Europe.
Right now, it takes a standard computer power cord for the U.S. which ends
in our three prong grounded male AC plug.  I have a European adapter which
will fit on the two flat prongs which leaves the ground unused.  Will this
be sufficient for 220 VAC operation in Europe or are outlets there also
grounded?  It seems very difficult to find information on this for some
reason.

Take care and very 73.

Kevin :)
