I am a newbie here, so I appoligize in advance if this has been covered. I am faced with several restorations of Philcos and other brands that have a tapped volume control. Now the question, if a volume control is definately destroyed, how do I (we) deal with the tone compensating tap? Thanks in advance.

Those are details better left to the ones who know. Maybe you disconnected the wrong end of the wire.RodB — 06:22 PM
