SUMMARY
The discussion centers on troubleshooting issues related to the Miller Dynasty 350A TIG welder, specifically concerning high-frequency (HF) interference. Users report that the HF start feature can inadvertently activate nearby electronic devices, such as sprinkler systems and home alarms. Solutions suggested include turning off the HF feature, which may hinder aluminum welding, or relocating the welder away from sensitive electronics. Grounding techniques were also mentioned as a potential method to mitigate interference.
