The volume level is between 1/8 and 1/4 volume level, and the volume control knob doesn't affect the volume at all, all it does is affect the tone and that's it, and the weird thing is that the tone control push buttons don't do anything to the radio except for the one marked "Normal" the rest of the tone control push-buttons don't do anything to the audio on the radio.

I'm wondering if one of my capacitors that I installed in the tone control/volume control circuit wasn't faulty or defective from the factory.
