It's probably been 5-6 years since I've worked on one. Except for a set of GD twins, I finally sold off all of my St. James gear. I seem to remember being able to get it snug (not tight, just snug). I'd have to open another one up to refresh my memory on that, though. It would take a pretty hefty hit on the radio to cause the coil slug to move in any case. You might try giving Howard Mills (W3HM) a call and see if he can make a recommendation. His contact info is on the CCA website. If anyone would know, he would, as the resident guru on all things St. James Grey. Grant/NQ5T
