The tube amp was making popping sounds and whizzing (up and down oscillating) sounds. I put new tubes in and it seems to have cured the popping, but the whizzing is still there.
anyone know any good sites that help with diy amp troubleshooting?

Is there a tiny little helicopter stuck inside of it?

I think you have a ground\radio interference.

Well, no. But the outlet isn't grounded, I wonder if that is the prob?

If there's no little tiny helicopter in it, it's almost certainly the problem.

Well there's your problem!
Have you ever played one? Made in U.S.A.
It was dubbed "The Stack in a box" because it sound very Marshally.

one of the things i never understood about peavey's is that they run multiple ground planes.... ie: if you pull the board up and look at it you'll notice that the grounds on the board aren't neccessarily run together.. they only tie together when mounted in the chasis through the stand-offs they're mounted on... make sense???? so if your working on one and you pull the board up you have to use alligatorclip jumpers to tie them together... well what that means for you is that sometimes grounding and interference issuses can be as simple as tightening the board down... at least that's where i would start... good luck...
