Why does the radio volume go up without turning it up?
The volume is fine for a few minutes, and then goes up as loud as it will go without the knob being touched. You have to manually hold the knob in the low position to keep the volume down, thus, not allowing the radio to be used. Is this a switch? I am pretty handy. Is this something that can be easliy replaced?

Hello
It is an electronic component mistake in the circuit board. Even though the volume is controlled by a knob, it actually works in cnjuction with and electronci circuit, usually controlled by an IC in some sets or with a transistor with others. You have to find out the faulty component on board. It is really a skilled work. Eventhough the faulty component won't cost more, loacating it is a skilled job indeed. You must have thorough knoledge in electronics, and the schematic diagram of your set. You must have knoledge to follow the schematic diagram too. You may be pretty handy, but this is not enough find out the faulty component. Must be an expert and must have succician expereince in repairing electronic circuits. OK.
