Parasites can usually not be found without a spectrum analyzer coupled 
loosely to the anode-resonance.  When one sends hs dits, damped ringing 
is observed at the anode's vhf resonance.

The best solution for the SB-220 (and TL922) is to remove 110vdc from the 
relay's bias contacts.  Also, the 100k R should be probably be connected 
across the NO contacts.  If this is not done, the filament transformer 
can be destroyed by a bad tube.
