Thank you to everyone for your advice.
Right before I headed out to the local Radio Shack
I went thru my stash of chemicals in the garage.
Sure enough from somewhere I had inherited a
can of old electrical contact cleaner.
I figured it must be the right stuff
because the can had a picture of a potentiometer on it.
Anyway after gently pulling the knob and tone
control ring off the radio shaft I gave it a good blast of
cleaner.
Put it back together, worked the volume
control a few times and it seems to be working great.
So far there is no static or fading .
Thanks again
