Hi all, I am a newby. I own a 1931 vintage lowboy with a model 96 chassis. The volume control works but only goes from medium to loud. It will not allow me to turn it down to a pleasant volume. Can the control be cleaned to fix or does it need to be replaced? I have a cool add for the radio from a 1931 Saturday Evening Post magazine .Thanks!
