After aligning I am getting pretty good sensitivity on the broadcast band. Also got signal on both of the shortwave bands. Picking up many more am stations than some of my other sets. Unfortunately there is a whooshing noise that repeats about once a second. It gets louder and softer as the volume control is adjusted an seems to dissappear midband (around 1000) but returns as you continue to tune upward thru 1500. With one or two strong stations you cant hear it but on weaker stations it remains present. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Cheers,
Bob
