Vintage 40/50s radiogram. Volume occasionally jumps up or down. Any suggestions as to what root of problem may be?
Valves were replaced but did not resolve issue

I sent you a PM regarding servicing your radiogram, The problem is most likely capacitors, the volume control itself and some resistors.

Please DO NOT CONTINUE TO USE IT UNTIL IT HAS BEEN CHECKED OVER AND SERVICED

Hi Michael.

Thanks for reply. Apologies, I replied back via web link on 20th Feb.
Would be very keen to have radiogram fully serviced.
Would you be able to do this?

Many thanks, George.
