Farnsworth BT600 schematic question.
#3

Terry  to the rescue as usual,
Hi Terry,
Problem started when I went to replace the tube socket for the 6SQ7 tube.
Was acting up. Had to wiggle the to get full volume.
Got a tube socket and there is a million wires and components connected to this tube.
Front side of the socket is very close to the tone control and the chassis which made it very hard to keep things straight. Got the socket put in and had audio(low) and no adjustment from high to low.
Suspected a wire unconnected.
Sure enough, the4 1st wire to the left of the wiper was clipped.
This was supposed to be an easy fix after the cleanup and the re-cap.
Win some and lose some.
