Next project-another 66!
#1

Hello all,
Thought since the first 66 went so well,I'd try another one with all I learned. Radio works -- all caps replaced, out of specs resistors changed.
Two minor problems- tone control goes into a high pitched squeal when put in left hand position (less bass). Tone control was rebuilt. The volume control is very touchy- I cleaned it well but get very irregular control. I actually had this out of the radio and separated the on/off section and cleaned internal controls very well- they seemed to move as expected.
Any thoughts on either problem?

These problems are hopefully minor compared to the last one.
Thanks,
Joe
