Sorry, no picture to paint 1000 words and I'm a bit terse at best!

Yes, with the junction of the resistor and capacitor going to the wire that used to go to the wiper and dangling free.
And the other end of the resistor going to the end of the pot. that the screens go to (the anti-clockwise/ minimum end)

This is adding under 10-p worth of components. to a set that that was originally over £39 (1969) despite penny-pinching new, equating to over £600 now!

And a reversible modification, if I'm talking rubbish. (Not unknown...)
