So let's work this the opposite way....

In this circuit, where would I be able to install a modification to cut the audio level by 50%?

I was able to test a few resistors in the set, which spec'd okay. When the Philco factory wires this sucker, they left zero lead length between the resistors and tie points. No way to test anything by taking it out of circuit. Which, fine, if I had to replace them, but as I said everything's too fragile in this set to even attempt it.

If it were my radio I'd search out a parts chassis....but that's part of the heritage the people want to try and preserve.
