Richard:

Well, it does need to be turned up a bit...

HEY!!! This knob ain't marked in Bels, how will I know how much to turn it
up... and my hearing is not quite what is was as a child--is the Bel
measurement in "Child Bel", "Adult Bel" or "Senior Bel"--yanno--this all is
quite confusing... is there a Bel Chart I can use to extrapolate from?

Warmest regards,
John

So Brett,

Do you watch the Radio with the volume turned down?
