Behalf Of imperialman Thank you to everyone for your advice. Right before I headed out to the local Radio Shack I went
thru my stash of chemicals in the garage. Sure enough from somewhere I had inherited a can
of old electrical contact cleaner. I figured it must be the right stuff because the
can had a picture of a potentiometer on it. Anyway after gently pulling the knob and tone control ring
off the radio shaft I gave it a good blast of cleaner. Put it back together, worked the volume control
a few times and it seems to be working great.
So far there is no static or fading .
Thanks again
Clay Smith
