Default Yaesu FRG-7700 Tuning dial mechanical fault

If it is mechanical, it may be jammed on something caught in the gears,

the part.


If the main bearing is badly worn, then those teeth can come out of mesh.
I've had this with a Trio TS530s. It's a simple matter to reset the
gears, but if the worn bearing isn't dealt with beforehand it'll come out
of mesh again pretty quickly.
