It WAS a duck!

The problems you have experienced are common. There's a reason I knew
it was a defective ground lead...

Taken in sum, all of these problems add up to experience. I would
like to say that it gets easier with time but it doesn't. The simple
problems are just upgraded to more difficult problems.
