Sounds like the Volume potentiometer ("pot") may be dirty. Try a can of tuner cleaner, available at Radio Shack and such places. If you can, use the straw with the cleaner and shoot it down the volume knob shaft to get as close to the "pot" as you can. Work the control back and forth as you shoot. Follow all label instructions. Do not operate heavy machinery.

Subject: IML: 60 radio gremlins

Greetings everyone.

 

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!
