[amsat-bb] Re: FT-736 tuning dial problem ? Any ideas ?

[Glenn Miller]

It sounds like the tuning shaft bearing is seizing.  I'm not familiar with the mechanics of that rig's tuning shaft, but I've had similar happen with other rigs.  

You may be able to access the bearing by removing the tuning knob and clean and lube it without removing/replacing it.

Good luck.
