Hi.
Had a few RF burns, one from the 40watt amps running at 4.43mhz in British Relay, the others from line stages, lived to tell the tale.
One last year from the Rod Pentode TX I made, put a hole in my finger, nippy little burn, and of course off the odd TV.
I'm fortunate as I so far done get strung on. I've dry skin on my hands and quite hard skin on fingers, so perhaps that helps. We used to hold the blade of a screwdriver and pull the AC off EHT rectifier anodes, never even feel a tingle so long as you don't touch anything else or are brave enough to get your other hand close to someone else.
