Okay so now oddly enough after I soldered the wire back it appears to be working now. I also found out whatever the other control is (it looks like a tuning capacitor ) affects volume control as well. Also can this unit be aligned, it appears to be off a little. I still also seem to have some obnoxious static coming through along with a slight hum, any way to get rid of those? I still need to find a 1mfd capacitor, any vlue where I could get one rather than place another order, I have no supply stores in my area.
