chattering solenoids

I've looked at all kinds of forum info, and am still broken. I have 10 valves and a 12 station RD-1200 timer. All the valves will turn on and water will run OK. But, they all chatter. I bought a volt meter and checked the timer by touching the ground wire and a station that I turned on using the manual mode. The meter read around 24 best as I could tell. I went to the manifold and used the volt meter with the station running in manual mode. The meter read around 24 best I could tell. I've run the valve without the timer by using the bleeder valve, and of course it's quiet.
So, I'm at a loss as to why the solenoids all chatter so much. Besides being noisy beyond belief, I think the chattering is affecting how the water flows as well.
Any ideas? I've tried everything. My next step is to call in a landscape guy who knows something more than what I've tried!
