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
