Do you have any stray magnetic fields around the rig (another power supply
or the base of a fluorescent desk lamp, for instance)?

Subject: [TenTec] PM-3 Hum problem

| Hi T-T fans:
|
| This may have come up before, so I'll apologize in advance. My PM-3 has
| a very pronounced hum on receive. The hum appears to get stronger when
| peaking the receiver tuning control. It is independent of power
| supply. I've tried it with my 961, an Astron VS-35, and a cheap Radio
| Shack thing; all the same. I would guess that it's time to start
| replacing electrolytic caps, but before I shot-gun it, I was wondering
| if any one else had been down this same road.
|
| Thanks for the read
