Philco model 70 rebuild - by Tim P.
#45

Some of the early volume controls have a cap over the back. My Fada 46 did. I was ready to drill but discovered that dang cap popped right off after removal of the pot (space problem) and a little help from a large jewelers screwdriver. Spraying didn't help in my situation as the carbon track was just plain mostly gone.
