A belated thank you to those who answered my question about a new volume control on my Philco 70.

I now have things working again but it was more involved that just switching the outer connections on the control.


When I looked at the chassis in more detail, I realized that, at some point in the past, someone had added external capacitors to the bakelite blocks without removing those inside. This involved some changes to the wiring and this is what threw me at first and led to the volume control not functioning properly.

I restuffed the blocks, put the wiring back with the help of a good photograph of the underneath of the chassis and the volume control works perfectly.

Thank you again.
