Don't know if this has ever been true in the USA but in the UK/Europe there were some sets (1980s?) that used a bridge rectifier and connected one side of the output to the chassis. Hence the chassis was always live (hot) at half mains (line) potential. Definitely need an isolating transformer to do any useful work on those.
