Recapped the Admiral! - Still having issues...

[RitchieMars]

Alrighty, I'll check up on these pot's and try getting the scratchiness out of them. When you said to spray WD-40 in the can's cap, do you mean to spray in the top of the IF cans? I get what you mean about the pots, though. I already had sprayed a bit on the outside of the chassis up front to loosen them because that time my rectifier got bright, my on/off switch was so tight the knob slipped off when I tried to shut it off. I've just been thrown off by the static I'm getting out of nowhere all of a sudden. I watch it run and hear static even when I don't touch anything.

Yeah, I looked into signal generators awhile back and realized that they are generally quite pricey and the cheap one's on Ebay ( old one's ) are said to be inaccurate.
