Well, thank you everyone. A brand new 50amp breaker seems to have taken
care of the problem!

IIRC, I suggested that as one of the first ten respondents. Anyway, glad
it's done. The metal in breakers gets heated over and over and over losing
its springiness. A breaker can be "good", but trip when their is nothing
wrong just because of the thermal effects of repetitive heating. I was told
this by an electrician with forty years of experience.

I might be wrong, but with no mention of GFCI, it appears he just
replaced the existing standard breaker with another standard breaker.
