philco 41-280 volume control
#1

Hi,
I just rebuilt a 41-280. Replaced ALL wiring ,even in the IF cans,resistors and caps.The BC band is working great and all tube voltages are right on.I was getting ready to do a IF and RF alignment
My question is, at min. volume, the audio can still be heard. I have even grounded the wiper on the pot and the audio is still there.It is not loud but, can be heard.It is leaking past the pot somewhere.
It doesn`t take much of a turn to get the volume pretty loud.
