It may not be coming in through the power rails from outside, but rather
being introduced onto the power rails by the 4024 itself. The first thing to
do is to solder a 10uf to 100uf electro directly across the power pins of
the 4024. If this helps, disconnect pin 14 the 4024 from the positive rail,
and add 10 ohms between the power rail and pin 14. The added caps should
remain directly between pins 7 and 14.
