So folks, I checked all the tubes including the Oscillator tube and they all tested good. I even changed them all from another radio and the static problem on the broadcast bands remained unchanged. When I tap the radio chassis with my finger, I get a "popping static sound" in the radio. So what does that mean, I have loose connection or poor solder connection somewhere or does that still point towards mica disease?
