many thanks to those who have tried surgestions...

ive tried all the ideas and am  sure the noise is definatly edp internals
related not the ambient conditions/ uk  voltage etc. i need advice from
anyone who has ever had to take off those damn heat/static covers on the
blackface unit  that now cover the two main chips that you could get to on
my beigeface  unit.
any tips of unsoldering, or should i try prising them off or maybe cutting
them off??
any final words of wisdom

cheers all
