[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1091841, member: 176704"] The "tingle" probably wasn't due to the LNB voltage current (which are both too low to felt for most people), but to the fact that there are Radio Interference suppression capacitors on the mains circuits of the computer itself because they "leak" very small currents onto the chassis thereof, and that results in a "smallish" voltage between the chassis and "true earth/ground". Almost every piece of such kit has that and it's rarely an actual "issue" - you can "feel" it because your body is not totally isolated from "true earth/ground", but it's nothing to "worry about".:D.
