No squeals or whistles when changing stations. When I have it tuned to a strong station touching the 1st rf tube grid cap increases the audio. I did try jumping the by pass cap can with the .25 and .75 in it. I used a 1.0 for the .75 and .22 for .25 I did not notice any change. Tomorrow I will use jumper wires and connect to all of the by pass caps at once and see what that does.

I have the tube shield cans on but the very top lids off. with lids on the tubes are completly covered.
also I have the antenna wire( BLK) hook to copper cold water pipe.
Thanks for staying with me on this problem.
