Thanks John, thanks everyone.
Tonight I used my "time off" to open and clean the volume control and the power switch. The switch was working but was a bit dirty.
Volume had lapses and scratching.
I opened it, no small doing, the resistor has 6 lugs, and the face plate on one side had the tabs soldered to it. The resistor itself is cylindrical, not flat, and very, very narrow.
As usual, Deoxit spay, then a little dab of Deoxit/Lithium grease. Now it is quiet and seems to have no lapses.
Question: who knows what belt should there be to drive the pulley that drives the tunng cap from the knurled cylinder attached to the flywheel? I have a rope with ends tied together as a large nod. It is loose. I wonder if it s original or should there be a belt?
KCMike, could you possibly look in yours?

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
