The tone control adjusts the 'brightness' of the audio, much like the treble and bass controls on modern equipment (although much more simplistic).

I know it's a silly question but, as I suspected it appears that the volume control is 'off' at the center position. When you switch to phono or radio, are you turning the control past the initial 'click'? To increase the volume for either function, the control needs to be turned further in the same direction as when switching the particular function on. Where in MI are you by the way?
