16b restoration help needed
#1

Just finished my first restoration on a 16b. I replaced all the caps and whatever resistors needed to be replaced. Also had the tubes tested and the on off volume control switch is new ( built by Mark at old radio parts ). When I first turned it on the volume was very high and could not be controlled. I realized the pot was not grounded, so I fixed that. Now the volume does not get very loud at all. No where near as loud as it was when I first had it on. Any ideas? The only cap I haven't replaced is the one on the volume control knob, but it seemed to be ok when I tested it on my multimeter. Haven't started the alignment yet. Could that be the problem?
