Wade,
There can be tremendous amount of variability based upon the condition of the vernier drive mechanisms.

Hi Drakelist.? I am interested in understanding how smooth the Drake C Line dial mechanisms were when the product was originally shipped from the factory. Perhaps some of you are original owners of C Line equipment and would comment?? ? I have read that "The dial mechanism should offer only slight resistance to the tuning knob. You should be able to fast spin the tuning knob by placing your index finger on the outside of the knob and rotating your hand."? ? Is this technically correct? I have a couple of C-Line units from different sources where the dial mechanisms are identical and smooth but definitely not free finger spinning as described above.? ?
