Does your RK-56 have one of those chrome metal mic cords by any chance ? ....Those as well as the Astatic 636's have been known to be quite shocking in many cases , Why ? Grounding I would assume in one way or the other. I had one of those on my RK-56 in which I had put my own chrome cord on , with my amp on ,I would get a little jolt if my lips touched the grill of the mic , best way to discribe it is the way I used to test 9 volters on my tongue to see if they were good to go or still had any juice left in them....Grounding huh ? ......every thing I own in my car is grounded one way or the other ,IM surprised I don't personally wear a grounding/static strap everytime I get in my car !! ....I just went back to the Belden coil cord the RK-56 originally had on it and the problem was gone ......Why ? do do do do..... do do do do.... do do do do....
