Volume control
#7

Hello, Bob: one of my "non-Philco" interests is 1932-34 Crosleys.

All I can say is be patient and check EVERYTHING on them..

The early Crosleys were an "affordable" set that used cheap components and crowded them on a small chassis. An especially troublesome component is the cardboard electrolytic filter caps that they wedged unde the chassis. They had a tendency to leak electrolyte. This inevitably caused collateral damage to other components and wiring there.
