I did this on a few omni 6 rigs, as the pot would get dirty, and it moved
normal volume to 12 o clock....should accomplish what you want, too. Part
numbers may be different, but it worked for me on the VI and 8 years later no
one has said I was wrong.

On every Omni VI I have had, the audio pot is only useable over 10% of its
range as it is way too loud.
I needed to check out some new filters and had the bottom off of the Omni VI,
SO....
I put a 70 ohm , 1/8 watt resistor between wiper and af min on audio pot at
connector 55 on Lower pot board.
Did this on Lower pot board as it was easiest, you could pull the if/af board,
too but I did not.
Flip rig with bottom off and front toward you.
Lower pot board is on right front.connect 70 ohms(or so) between 2nd and 3rd
solder trace counting from the left.
Works like a charm. Normal audio level is at 12 o clock now instead of 7
o'clock....
I didn't have to pull any boards either.
I can only guarantee this on my rig, not responsible for yours.
Best regards.
