Another Volume Control Question
#1

I have yet another radio [42-PT95] which has excellent sound and is working perfectly, except for one thing. The lowest volume when the radio turns on is higher than I would like.

There is no crackling or static when the volume is increased (and it does steadily increase), but it is a mid level volume when set in the low position.

Is this a dirty contact problem in the volume control.

If so how, do I successfully clean this.

- Do I need to remove from radio first ?
- Do I need to take apart ?
- What should I use to clean it ? [be specific please with Name of product and possible link to product]
- Do I need to replace the volume control ?

Sorry for the questions about minute details, but I have messed up a few radios by using the incorrect proceedure or wrong type of cleaner etc. I would like to avoid that this time if possible.

Thanks.
