38-116 Restoration
#9

I have a volume control question for this radio.  The "grounded" side of the volume control, according to the schematic, was left unconnected by the factory.  There is no evidence of solder ever having been on the terminal.  I wonder if the volume was ever able to be turned down to nothing.  I'll leave it this way and test it.  If it doesn't work properly on the bench, I'll add the ground connection.  Have any of you run across this on your 38-116?  My 37-116 is wired as per the schematic.
