model 41-280 noisy static
#25

Well I decided to really get into it.  I labeled everything and took the band switch out.  Cleaned all the contacts and rewired to get rid of the old rubber wire.  Looks a lot better.  Powered her back up and she STILL HAS THIS NASTY NOISY STATIC.  I thought we had it narrowed down to the osc.area and the A wafer of the band switch.  But after taking all that apart and cleaning and rewiring and resoldering, it's still there. Maybe a longer antenna would be in order. Right now I have an active antenna wired with coax to my bench but that doesn't seem to make any difference.

Any thoughts where to look next would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Dick
