Hi, I have replaced all the usual caps but not the micas. There is one mica strapped across the volume control - would a leak here cause the problem?

The radio signal does change with tuning, but I would prefer to resolve the problem rather than tune out of it...

I will check the new caps tomorrow to see if there are any leaks.

Not sure about the unloaded detector idea - by swapping over from the normal input to the BT input, am I not doing the same as I would be if I connect to the GRAM input on my GEC - switching to GRAM seems to be the same as disconnecting the volume switch input?

I intended to power the 5V DC unit from the AC input, but I like the idea of using an in house supply rather than adding the 5V unit - I will look at tapping off the lamp circuit.

Hope to resolve this because the BT sound on my GEC is great and I would like to emulate that on my Bush. I know I could use a pantry transmitter, but the BT is a neater solution.
