The gimmick wire that morzh mentioned is labelled A in the schematic. You can see more about it in this post on improving an 80 (it is labelled A in this article) and its just a diagram of a wire connected at one end in this second article.
Thanks much. I reviewed the article and found it very interesting. Thanks for adding the schematic. I thought about that after I posted this problem. It was strange to see a piece of dirty white tape that looked like the old adhesive tape used for bandaids years ago wrapped around the loose end. My radio has lots of volume on strong stations, in fact, so much that I can not cut the volume down to zero. Just the same problem everyone else has with this radio that I have read about in the Phorum.
