Hello All.
I have a Firestone Model R-1661,
http://www.nostalgiaair.org/pagesbymodel...006273.pdf
The radio plays after restoration with the exception of the volume control ( #41A 250k ohm) which has some bad spots in it and I would like to replace it but the control has a Tap. Also the value of the pot is 500k so someone must have replaced it at one time.
Can I omit the tap?
Is there anyway to know the value of the tap or is it standard?
Is there a workaround I have a 250k pot I can use but it does not have a tap.
Thanks Eric
