Which tube in the renegade is for the drive channel's gain?

Getting some popping and noise when switching to the drive channel. I'm sure it's just a tube. Which tube should I be looking at? Thanks!

Depends on which channel you are using as the drive channel.

This is from the Egnater site and shows the tubes place in the Renegade circuit. Assuming it is correct.

Looks like V1 for channel 1, and V3 for channel 2, but it could be any tube in that channel really, if it is a tube issue.

V3 & V4 ,assuming you don't have noise on Channel 1 (V1A is used by both CH1 & Ch2).
