No Clay, you're wrong!  I'm the guy Jerry met in 2001.

   I had a regular interval sound on the MK-VI just last week.  It was
more of a squeek than a click.  There is a ground wire connected to a
tab thingy that presses against the end of the capstan.

I put small touch of lubricant where the ground tab meets the
capstan.  No more squeek!  Of course I was careful not to get any lub
anywhere else on the capstan.

P.S. Jerry, I'm the guy you met in 2001.
