Tex:

Thank you for you insight, the push buttons have nothing to do with the SW bands, so it eliminates that. Should I clean the terminals on all the tubes or just some? Further, why is only the upper SW band affected and not the other SW band?
Would the 42 tubes have any affect on it, they are new? Again, thanks. Icon_rolleyes
God bless,

Dave B.
