Clay,
When you adjust the
radio volume normally, is there a static like crackling noise as you move the
volume control? If so it just means the volume potentiometer (pot) is
dirty. A good blast of contact cleaner will usually clear this up.
The problem is getting the contact cleaner into the pot. After removing
the knobs from the shaft you might be successful spraying along the edge of
the shaft and hopefully get enough into the pot to clear up the problem.
Otherwise you will need to remove the radio to gain better access to clean
it.

My 60 Custom's otherwise great
sounding radio has developed a problem.
Every so often the
volume will start to fade on its own until I reach up and
touch the on-off volume knob.
Then the volume will most
always come back to normal .
Sometimes I have to do this
three or four times before the volume will stay
.
Could it be an antenna
problem?
Its hard to listen to
Minnesota Twins baseball in glorious AM with fluctuating
volume!
