I just broke the On/Off Volume Knob function in my '49 Burb. It's an original box & controls with an AM-FM conversion board. The knob/shaft turn but the radio doesn't go on and there in no detent for the On/Off function. Anyone know how and if this can be fixed?

steveg,
of all the components on the original radio, a broken volume control is the hardest to deal with. This is because the design using a switch for tone control was not very common. Most of the radios at the time used a continuous control.

In your case it depends how the conversion unit used the original control. It would probably be best to take it to someone who does the conversions on a regular basis.
