I went ahead and changed 2 more resistors. The 16,000k on the resistor mounting board it was reading 19,800k and the 200,000 k btwn the by-pass caps. It was reading 300,000k. There was still no change in performance. Tried the .1 caps to the by-pass cap cans. No change.
While looking at the schematic I realized that the volume control has two sides with 50,000k ohms.
When I checked it I only took reading from the antenna side. which was ok.
I took a reading from the other side today and it was 1740 ohms with no change when rotating volume control.
Powered up and started tapping vol. control with wood dowel. It caused audio volume to go up and down.
Can that volume control be taken apart? I'm afraid with 2 control sides in it, might be trouble if I do try to disassenble. Thanks
