My latest Philco model 20

I took the cover off the volume control and really cleaned it . Now it works good.  Dan in Calgary

Hi, Dan

Have you tried squirting some contact cleaner into the volume control?  Sounds like it might just be a little dirty.  Good luck.

   I picked up this Canadian Philco model 20  a week ago and now I have it recapped and running.
         The speaker is a little high pitched , but that is because the cone is stiff. I understand that 
these particular speakers were all like that.
  I am having some issues with the volume control '''''  the volume will jump up on occasion,
but I can live with that.
   I have repaired the grill woodwork and  now  I'm waiting for warm weather to do the cabinet.
