I apologize for the strongly worded post, but it really did sound like you were trying to say your phono jack was installed on your radio from the factory. I assure you, it wasn't.
And if you go back and look at the previous posts in this thread, you will see that many people have been trying to give sound advice here. However, there is no substitute for learning the basics of electronic repair on your own, and there are many sources to learn the basics. One of the best may be found here:

And as Mike has mentioned, it will likely take an alignment to get your radio performing at its peak - and this requires a signal generator.
