Dead _channel_ ?

Assuming it's a channel (one side works, other side doesn't)..

Check the FM-Mono/FM-Stereo switch or the volume pot. Since one side
works, it could something to do with the amp. (Do both sides
work with AM?)

I see from the photo it uses a regular pot, (good) a lot
of the slide pots are really crummy IMO. I've seen sliders
go out on a lot of radios.

Anyhow check the volume pot. Failing that, anything mechanical in
nature, THEN worry about the electronics.
