Hi Joel, call up the Icom parts dept.
They have tons of volume controls.
They use the same control for many HT's.
Just 3 weeks ago I received a new volume
control for my 02AT.
My old control only worked in a certain spot about 3/4 up.

Good Luck!
73, Mark

I've had this nice HT for 16 years now, and it's had no problem until
now. The volume control is very flakey -- only works in certain
positions, and sometimes not at all. There seems to be a mechanical
noise, also. Is there any hope for repair at a pracical cost? I've
opened it up and it looks like I could replace the control if I could
get another one. Are parts available? Or is it time to get something
newer? Does the rig have any salvage value? Finally, is there a better
news group for these kinds of question?

Thanks to all.
