Tonight, I tested an R-25 receiver I have been working on here by powering 
it with a DM-34 dynamotor. I first cleaned then greased the dynamotor's 
bearings with that grease that Mike Hanz recommended.

I was using clip-leads to connect everything together with. At first, there was 
some minor "crackling" noticeable in the audio, but when I connected the 
frame of the dynamotor to the chassis of the receiver with another clip-lead, 
the crackling disappeared.

Innersting....

Boy! Band conditions are just awful. Very few signals on any band but 40 
and 20.
