Boys and girls,
After a recap, a few resistors replaced, and a few tubes, the radio is working.
yet a problem remains.
I can't seem to turn the volume down. Now, it does work, but fully counterclockwise, there's plenty of volume. And at that level, the control acts like a tone control, lowering the pitch of the audio.
Tone control works fine
I can't do much more for another week on this as while I was working on the radio, the 80 rectifier tube decided to call it quits. Got another one on order, expensive little buggers...
Anyone have a clue about the odd volume control?
