Pulled the 20 back out. Seems to work O.K., but with one exception: volume control.

Both 250 and the 5K run smooth. Starting at 5K and zero volume, I turn the knob. Still have no volume until it hits 3.5K. Then it increases until 2.5K. It then decreases slightly until I hit 1.5K, then nothing.

Took resistance measurements with power off, since my meter has effect on volume.

Greatful for reply,

Pat
