    "content": "Hi Alan,\n\nA few years ago I had the same problem with my FT-840. It got worse over a \nperiod of a few weeks to the point that I could not even turn the shaft. I \nhad to replace the encoder. It was not a really tough job except for gaining \naccess to the front control panel.\n\nGood luck.\n\n73 de Jess - W4MVB\n\n----- Original Message ----- \nFrom: \"Alan Sieg WB5RMG\" <[email protected]>\nTo: <[email protected]>\nSent: Sunday, February 01, 2009 7:08 PM\nSubject: [amsat-bb] FT-736 tuning dial problem ?

Well this evening it was\n> S9+ and I could barely copy ISS. After the pass I'm spinning up and down\n> the band in USB hoping to find a freq with the most noise, and the dial\n> starts to drag. Only slightly at first, but over a 5 min period it got\n> worse and worse, to where it was actually squeaking some. Then I could\n> no longer use the spinner, and it was getting hard to turn. Now I have to\n> use several fingers grip, and it squeaks a lot. The freq does change with\n> rotation, but now I have stopped messing with, as it is nearly too tight\n> to turn !!!    Has my 20 yr power-train warranty just expired ?\n> What a difference 10 minutes can make.
