Hi Mark
Yes the 10r resistor is just for the earphone socket, but the wire from that resistor loops through the end tag on the treble pot and connects to the centre tag. It was soldered onto the centre tag but there was no solder on the end tag, I thought this could be the cause of it being intermittant.
Thinking again about it, you are correct, this would not in itself cause it to be intermittent as it would still work as a variable resistor with just one end connected to the orange wire and the black wire on the centre tag.
Anyway it is working without crackles now.
Thanks
Mike
p.s.
Ill have a look at those other caps you mention. cheers
