The transformer is not the original. Has been changed. I know. The early Atwater Kent transformers have quite a few problems.
As for the volume, it is very rare. It does not heat up. I do not understand. After a few seconds it works normally. But when I turn on the radio it is very loud.
Otherwise everything perfect. I had to change all the wiring. The rubbers came off. They were completely dried out. It was a danger !!!!
The volume is driving me crazy !!!!

It's the weirdest thing that has ever happened to me.
