I need to replace the volume control/on/off switch on this one. Left turn on phono/ right turn on radio.
Is there a volume control/switch available ? If not what value control do I need ? Is it the same for left and right control ?

Check with Mark Oppat. He fixed me up with a new one for a 1201 I was working on.

If the volume part is good and the switch clcks, try to open it. Sometimes it's just cleaning.

The volume control is a bit odd it's 1megohm total with a tap @ 500k + a switch.

I was down in the basement in my dad's

figure out what all those squiggly meant.

What's wrong with the control?
