wiper to ground reads about 7 ohms this time, sometimes its 10, others is 2 and other times its like 20 but still low enough.
so... the ref gnd signal is stable enough to not be the fault for this.
it could be several things.
i tried calibrating down in resistivity of the 47kohm R after the wiper,, still have sound with vol at Min.
i think i will just live with it.
this bugger gets really HOT on the outside,,
headed out to put it back inside its carry case after i add my antenna relay back on.
i am considering a 120 v small fan to mount inside it....
