Hi, I am planning to restore the above as and when I can get hold of the
components.
The radio receives lw/mw and 6 sw bands.

It was working ok and then the volume suddenly dropped to about half that
it
should be, the potts have been cleaned and are not noisy.

The radio picks up all the channels it did previously but it is quiet and
turning the volume pott up or down does pretty much nothing.

Could anyone point me in the general direction of which component/s to
look
for as the culprit/s?

Any help would be massively appreciated.

I will post the schematic on alt.binaries.schematics.electronic entitled
'Pye P35 Schematic'

Thanks for any help guys.




I'd start by checking the volume control itself and solder joints in the
audio section. What sort of audio output device does it use? Amplifier IC,
or one made of discrete transistors?
