If you are interested in some changes I made to my 81 Jr to address the volume issue, check out the following thread.

Thanks Bill.  May be the next thing I will try.  This seems to put the volume control in the output circuit where later models have them.

Hi Bill:

I made the changes in your diagram to my delight!  Grounding the receiver was not an option for me.  With the circuitry change I can now control the volume from zero to loud on the strongest stations.  I do not notice any distortion at any volume level and I now receive more stations than I did before the changes.  Amazing!  Thanks much!
