Jeff Lynch	Re: Crackling intermittently on Mission 5e3 Well, the crackling is back . . . but not as frequently. I found that the "switch" part of the 1/4 input jack was not making good contact and causing crackling sounds. When I bent it so that it made better contact, some of the crackling stopped. I still get some crackling. There must be some more cold joints out there. Have any of you had problems with the "switch" part of the 1/4" input jacks?
