Backcheck noise

[David Love]

Not all but enough that it's likely that whatever I do will be to them all.
I've not experimented enough with different materials (or manufacturers) to
give a definitive answer.  I did move the backcheck away from the tail and
without tail/backcheck contact, the noise was definitely gone (the flange
centers had been changed and checked already)

All the backchecks?   Can you temporarily attach a piece of buckskin with
tacks and pull it out a bit to make it check as a test?
