My HRD had the same crackle. Turned out that it was the output transformer in the process of failing. Sounds like yours has fried too. I replaced mine with a Hammond 1620, which is conservatively rated at 20 watts, but is actually has more iron than the cheap HRD output transformer. It sounds as good or better than the fender tranny.
